Important Announcement Regarding Deaths in King County
Families and their Funeral Service Providers, including Barton Family Funeral Service, are experiencing significantly delays in obtaining death certificates from King County while King County implements an electronic system called EDRS. (You may read about it HERE)
We have been using the EDRS system for several years for deaths occurring in other counties such as Snohomish County. We know the system well and are trying to help physicians and hospitals as they make the transition. Because King is such a large county, the transition is taking longer than we have experienced in the past, and unfortunately we are all experiencing considerable delays in obtaining death certificates.
County and State officials are very cooperative and are working diligently to facilitate the change. We ask for your patience and assure you that we are doing everything possible to meet your expectations.
Our deepest condolences to the family.
Your mother was truly a amazing caring woman, nothing can replace a mother’s love, Hold on to the sweet memories of her. Continued blessings and peace to you all
Love Trudy.
It’s hard to express the sorrow I felt when we got the news of Kaye’s passing. Up until now, I have been unable to come to terms with her passing because I was so full of hope she would survive. I have been heartbroken and it has taken me some time to accept that Kaye is no longer with us. She was a great person and we had the utmost love for each other and always kept each other close in our hearts.
Since the Covid appeared last March , I have not been able to see Kaye for the past 16 months. Who knew that when I said goodbye to her in March last year that it would be the last time I would see her. She’ll always be in my heart and I keep a picture of her close by and look at it often and remember my sweet Kaye and the love we shared.
