Fast answer
Flamm Funeral Home Obituaries: Four Things to Know First
Do not assume the funeral is at 61 North 1st East. Flamm’s current memorials regularly show a viewing at the funeral home followed by a funeral at an LDS stake center, ward chapel or another venue, with burial at a separate cemetery.
Avoid the wrong location
Flamm Funeral Home in Rexburg Is Not the Same Physical Location as Bert Flamm Mortuary in St. Anthony
Flamm Funeral Home — Rexburg
61 North 1st East
Rexburg, ID 83440
Phone: (208) 356-5721
Fax: (208) 356-5722
Email: bfmortuary@aol.com
Bert Flamm Mortuary — St. Anthony
581 East 1st North
St. Anthony, ID 83445
Phone: (208) 624-7351
Bert Flamm is identified on Flamm’s staff page as a funeral director and manager of the St. Anthony mortuary.
A St. Anthony resident can appear in Flamm Funeral Home’s obituary system, and some service events may use Bert Flamm Mortuary. Confirm the funeral provider and event venue on the individual memorial instead of choosing a location only from the person’s hometown.
Find Flamm Funeral Home for Rexburg or Bert Flamm Mortuary for St. Anthony → compare the address with the individual obituary → use the service memorial rather than the nearest location when attending an event.
Official obituary lookup
How to Search Flamm Funeral Home Obituaries Step by Step
-
1
Open Flamm’s official obituary directory
Start with flammfh.com rather than a copied obituary, social post or commercial people-search page.
-
2
Find the “Search Obituaries” field
Enter the person’s full name first.
-
3
Simplify the query if needed
If the full name fails, remove the middle name, title or suffix. Then try the surname alone.
-
4
Open “Visit Obituary”
The directory preview is not the complete memorial. Open the individual page before using service details.
-
5
Verify the correct person
Compare life dates, Rexburg-area locality, family information and other public details.
-
6
Read every service event separately
Viewing, visitation, funeral, memorial and burial can have different locations and times.
-
7
Use the memorial’s directions tools
Current Flamm service blocks can provide directions and, on some pages, a phone field that sends directions by text.
-
8
Recheck before traveling
If an event is upcoming, reopen the live memorial rather than relying on an older screenshot or copied message.
Use Search Obituaries → open Visit Obituary → verify the name and dates → scroll to Service Schedule → open directions or livestream only for the exact event you need.

Older and missing notices
Can’t Find the Flamm Obituary? Change the Search Strategy
When you know the approximate year, manually move into older directory pages after trying the person’s surname. For a common name, verify birth/death dates and relatives before accepting a match.
Rexburg, Sugar City, Salem, Lyman, Archer, St. Anthony and other Upper Snake River communities can produce similar family names. Confirm several public details before treating the obituary as the correct person.
Read the complete memorial
What a Flamm Obituary Page Can Contain
Flamm says its online memorial can be shared digitally. Sending the official memorial link makes it easier for relatives to reopen the live source if times or directions need to be checked again.
Only treat a service as livestreamed when the individual memorial displays an explicit livestream link.
Rexburg service routing
The Viewing, Funeral and Cemetery May Be Three Different Places
Don James’s August 2026 memorial listed his visitation and funeral at the Rexburg North Stake Center, 314 East 2nd North—not at Flamm Funeral Home. This is why an obituary search and a map search are not interchangeable.
Doralee Rydalch’s memorial listed a Friday viewing at Flamm Funeral Home in Rexburg and the Saturday viewing/funeral at a church in Idaho Falls. One obituary can therefore involve more than one city.
A death has occurred
What to Bring to a Flamm Funeral Arrangement Conference
Flamm’s own Frequently Asked Questions page publishes a practical arrangement-conference list. Preparing these details in advance can make the meeting more efficient and reduce errors in the obituary, death certificate and veteran documentation.
Advance instructions
- Written disposition instructions.
- Existing funeral prearrangements.
- Preneed contract if one exists.
- Relevant instructions contained in estate documents.
Military information
- Military discharge papers.
- Service dates.
- Service or serial information when available.
- Desired military honors.
Cemetery property
- Existing grave plot.
- Columbarium space.
- Cemetery ownership documentation.
- Known cemetery rules or contacts.
Photo + personal effects
- Recent photograph.
- Photos for memorial or tribute video.
- Personal effects requested for viewing or burial.
Vital-statistics details
- Full legal name.
- Address.
- Marital status.
- Social Security number.
- Date and place of birth.
Life + family details
- Educational history.
- Occupation/profession.
- Parents’ names.
- Mother’s maiden name.
- Next of kin.
- Other survivors.
Use one document for legal-name spelling, parents’ names, survivor list, cemetery information, military details and obituary notes. That reduces conflicting versions when several relatives are helping.
Social Security numbers, military documents, identification, insurance information and financial records belong only with Flamm or the verified government/financial institution that needs them.
Find What information should I bring to the arrangement conference? → compare the funeral home’s list with what you already have → create one folder for instructions, military records, cemetery information, photo/personal effects and vital statistics.
Know who handles what
What Flamm Says the Funeral Director Can Handle
Care and transfer
- Transfer from place of death.
- Professional care.
- Embalming when selected or applicable.
- Casketing and cosmetology.
Documents and final disposition
- Certificates and required forms.
- Copies of the death certificate.
- Cemetery coordination.
- Crematory/final-disposition coordination.
Funeral logistics
- Create/publish obituary.
- Clergy and music.
- Flowers and transportation.
- Pallbearers.
- Military/fraternal service.
- Funeral procession.
Its FAQ specifically mentions Social Security, VA insurance and grief counseling. The current SSA and VA sections later in this guide explain where federal eligibility/application rules should be checked.
Public Flamm documents
Some Flamm Memorials Include Downloadable Funeral Program PDFs
Current and historical Flamm memorial pages can include a Program for [Name] link. These files can contain details that are not obvious from the short obituary preview.
What a public Flamm funeral program can contain
- Life dates.
- Family relationships.
- Pallbearers and honorary pallbearers.
- Presiding/conducting participants.
- Music and hymns.
- Speakers and prayers.
- Order of service.
- Burial time and cemetery.
Public example reviewed
Flamm hosts a two-page funeral-program PDF for Linnea DelHoyo’s 2024 service. It is historical material and should not be treated as a current service announcement.
How to use a Flamm program correctly
- Open the person’s individual obituary.
- Look for a Program for… or similar program link.
- Use the program for service-order or family-history context.
- For an upcoming event, still compare the live Service Schedule.
- Do not assume an old program reflects current Flamm staff, fees or procedures.
A funeral program may identify family relationships and participants that are not fully captured in an obituary summary. Treat the program as one source and cross-check names before adding them to a family tree.
Funeral decision support
Burial, Cremation, Memorial and Personalization Options at Flamm
Visitation
Flamm describes visitation as a time for family/friends to gather and says it can be personalized with photographs, tribute video, meaningful items or displays.
Funeral Service
A funeral may be held in Flamm’s chapel, a church or another family-selected venue and can include stories, music or scripture.
Graveside / Committal
A graveside service may follow a funeral or be a smaller independent gathering.
Cremation + Funeral
Flamm explicitly says choosing cremation does not prevent a family from having a funeral service.
Memorial Service
Cremation can be paired with a memorial service or another private remembrance.
Livestream / Keepsakes
Flamm’s services overview identifies livestreaming, tribute videos and keepsakes as personalization options.
| Decision | Burial route | Cremation route |
|---|---|---|

| Funeral service | May be at Flamm, a church or another venue. | A full-service funeral can still be held. |
| Memorial service | Optional based on family preference. | A common option after cremation. |
| Final placement | Cemetery burial or another lawful final disposition. | Permanent-resting-place options depend on family choice and local rules. |
Flamm’s FAQ specifically answers that a funeral can still be held when cremation is chosen.
Choose Traditional Services, Cremation Services, Personalization or Veterans Service → note the options relevant to your family → prepare questions → then ask Flamm for current itemized pricing.
A uniquely practical Flamm resource
What to Do When a Death Occurs Away From Rexburg
Flamm publishes a dedicated Death Away From Home guide. Its first recommendation is to contact the local funeral director you want handling the arrangements so that professional coordination can begin.
Death elsewhere in the United States
Flamm explains that returning the deceased to the home community commonly involves two funeral homes:
- A funeral provider where the death occurred handles local transfer/preparation.
- The receiving funeral home handles local services and final arrangements.
Death outside the United States
Flamm explains that preparation and shipment follow the laws/customs of the country where the death occurred. A family may consider return of the deceased, local burial, or return of cremated remains depending on circumstances.
If the family wants Flamm to handle the Rexburg arrangements, call Flamm first and ask how it wants the transfer coordinated.
Identify whether the death occurred inside or outside the United States → read the applicable section → call Flamm at (208) 356-5721 before committing to unnecessary duplicate services or transportation.
Planning before an emergency
Flamm Preplanning: Decisions That Can Be Made Before the Time of Need
Choose the service
- Funeral home/director.
- Traditional burial, cremation, donation or another option.
- Burial location.
- Casket or urn considerations.
- Service location.
- Flowers versus charitable donation.
Choose participants
- Pallbearers.
- Officiant.
- Other service participants.
- Music.
- Obituary details.
Choose who will carry it out
- Make sure someone can locate the will.
- Give a trusted person key account-contact information.
- Document final wishes.
- Assign someone to cancel utilities/subscriptions.
Its Plan Ahead page directs people who want an in-person discussion to call (208) 356-5721.
Flamm’s checklist discusses advance payment, but you can still document service wishes without treating every planning decision as a purchase decision.
Work through Choose the Type of Service → Choose Who You Want to be in Charge → review any advance-payment section separately → write down questions before making financial commitments.
Funeral-price transparency
How to Request Current Flamm Funeral Prices
A current General Price List was not identified in the main public Flamm pages reviewed for this article. Rather than publish guessed pricing, use the Federal Trade Commission’s Funeral Rule to request current price information directly.
Micro-step: call Flamm for current pricing
- Call (208) 356-5721.
- Name the specific service you want priced.
- Ask for itemized prices rather than only a package total.
- Ask what is included.
- Ask which charges are third-party/cash-advance costs.
- Ask whether death certificates, obituary publication, cemetery, crematory or transportation are separate.
- If arranging in person, keep the General Price List.
- Compare the final statement with the services actually selected.
Read price information on the telephone → General Price List → casket price list → outer burial container price list → buy only the arrangements you want.
Military funeral assistance
Flamm Veteran Services and Current VA Burial Benefits
Flamm identifies Veteran Services as one of its service categories and its FAQ says the funeral director can arrange special military services. Federal eligibility and payment rules should be checked with VA.
Military funeral honors
Tell Flamm early that the deceased was a Veteran so honor coordination can be discussed.
Burial allowance
Eligible claimants may receive reimbursement for qualifying funeral, burial, plot/interment or transportation expenses.
National cemetery
Eligible Veterans and certain family members may qualify for VA national-cemetery benefits.
Government marker
VA has programs for eligible headstones, markers and other memorial items.
Burial flag
An eligible Veteran may qualify for a U.S. burial flag.
Pre-need cemetery eligibility
Families can investigate VA cemetery eligibility before the time of need.
For applications that require a claim, VA currently uses VA Form 21P-530EZ and also provides an online application route.
VA currently lists a $1,002 burial allowance and $1,002 plot allowance under the applicable eligibility rules. A service-connected death can follow a different maximum-benefit rule. Do not treat either amount as automatic.
Documents worth keeping together
- Death certificate.
- DD-214 or other discharge documentation.
- Paid funeral/cemetery receipts.
- Transportation receipts if applicable.
- Funeral-home or cemetery statement when requested by VA.
Check eligibility → identify the benefit needed → review current payment rules → gather discharge/death/receipt documentation → use the online application or current VA form when a claim is required → save the confirmation.

Idaho vital records
How to Order an Idaho Death Certificate After a Flamm Funeral
Idaho death certificates are issued through the Idaho Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics. Idaho currently maintains death certificates filed since July 1911, and death records remain legally confidential for 50 years.
Direct and tangible interest
Idaho limits certified copies to qualified people such as immediate family, legal representatives or others who can establish the required legal interest.
No walk-in Vital Records counter
The Idaho Bureau says certified-copy requests must be submitted online or by mail.
VitalChek
Idaho identifies VitalChek as its official online partner. Additional VitalChek fees apply.
More economical
Mail orders require the application, acceptable identification and signed payment.
| Idaho Vital Records item | Current information |
|---|---|
| Certified certificate | $16 per copy. |
| Standard processing | Approximately 3–5 weeks after a properly completed request is received, excluding mailing time. |
| Express processing | Approximately 2–3 weeks for qualifying express certificate orders. |
| VitalChek fee | Current Idaho page lists a $10.50 non-refundable VitalChek fee, with additional rush/shipping options. |
| Vital Records phone | (208) 334-5980. |
-
1
Determine who needs the certified copy
Make a list of banks, insurers, courts, pension plans or agencies that specifically require certification.
-
2
Confirm you qualify to order
Idaho requires the requester to meet its direct-and-tangible-interest rules.
-
3
Choose online or mail
Online VitalChek processing is generally faster; mail is described by Idaho as the more economical route.
-
4
Prepare identification
Use an acceptable ID copy showing the required signature and expiration information.
-
5
Choose rush service before submitting
Idaho warns that rush service cannot be added to an already submitted certificate order.
-
6
Review the application carefully
Unsigned payments, unsigned applications or incomplete ID can stop processing.
-
7
Save proof of the order
Keep the mailed application copy, payment record or online confirmation until the certificate arrives.
For the lowest direct cost, Idaho recommends ordering by mail or through its official online partner rather than an unrelated certificate broker.
Check Who Can Order → review Identification Requirements → choose online or mail → check current processing times/fees → add rush service before submission if needed → save the confirmation.
Madison County / Idaho courts
Where to Start With an Estate or Probate After a Rexburg Death
Funeral arrangements and probate are separate processes. Idaho’s court materials explain that probate is generally used when title to property must be transferred, and different estates may involve informal, formal, supervised or other procedures depending on circumstances.
Madison County Courthouse
159 East Main
PO Box 389
Rexburg, ID 83440
Main phone: (208) 359-6252
The current Idaho Supreme Court county courthouse directory lists this Rexburg location for Madison County.
Prepare before contacting the court
- Original will if one exists.
- Certified death certificate.
- Basic list of known assets.
- Property/title information.
- Names of heirs/beneficiaries.
- Information about debts/creditors.
Potentially simpler
Idaho’s Court Assistance publication explains that an informal probate can sometimes proceed without a court hearing.
More court involvement
Formal proceedings may be appropriate when there are disputes about the will, heirs, personal representative or distribution.
Surviving-spouse route
Idaho materials describe summary administration as an expedited spouse-related route in qualifying circumstances.
Court Assistance is not your lawyer
Idaho Court Assistance Officers can explain processes and approved forms but cannot give legal advice.
First determine who has legal authority to act for the estate and whether a probate or another transfer procedure is required.
The Seventh Judicial District Court Assistance Office serves the region and can explain court procedures and approved forms. For legal strategy, contested estates or complex property issues, use a qualified Idaho attorney.
Use the site for legal-information publications and court resources → identify the estate/probate material relevant to your situation → compare it with Madison County court contact information → contact the courthouse before assuming which probate procedure applies.
Scroll to Madison County → confirm 159 East Main in Rexburg and the current phone → use the court contact when you need filing-location or procedural information.
Idaho estate shortcut
Can’t Locate the Will? Idaho Has a Voluntary Will Registry
The Idaho Secretary of State operates a voluntary Will Registry. Registration is not required for a will to be valid, but the registry can help interested people determine whether information about a registered will is available.
What the registry does
- Allows voluntary registration of will information.
- Provides a process for an interested person to request will information.
- Does not make registration mandatory for validity.
What it does not do
- It is not legal advice.
- It does not replace probate.
- It does not mean every Idaho will is registered.
- It should not be treated as proof that no will exists if a search produces nothing.
Find Searching the Will Registry → confirm that you qualify as an interested person → download the Request Will Information Form → complete the certification → submit it using the Secretary of State instructions.

What Often Happens After Flamm Is Contacted
Not every family needs every step and the order can differ. This separates funeral-home work from county, state and federal responsibilities.
Make a list of institutions that actually require certified copies. Some may return the certificate, accept another document or verify the death electronically.

Federal survivor tasks
Social Security After a Death: What the Funeral Home Reports and What Survivors Still Need to Do
Funeral homes generally report it
SSA says funeral homes generally tell Social Security when someone dies, so a separate family report is usually unnecessary.
Call Social Security
SSA asks for the person’s name, Social Security number, date of birth and date of death.
Survivor benefits
Eligible spouses, divorced spouses, children or dependent parents may qualify for monthly payments.
$255 death payment
A qualifying spouse, or some children when no qualifying spouse exists, may be eligible.
Potential survivors should contact SSA about their own eligibility even when Flamm has already reported the death.
SSA phone: 1-800-772-1213
Review How to report a death → Lump-sum death payment → Survivor benefits → determine whether a family member may qualify → call SSA when an application or unreported death needs attention.
