Just to think, at one time this was probably attached to a dead person waiting to be cremated :/
Nice find though

I should have added that I found it at Daytona Beach. I guess he went for one last swim.

Actually, I think a form with vital information and a number is placed with the deceased, and the tags issued have to match the number.

ABOUT CREMATION AND THE CREMATION PROCESS:

Once the proper authorizations are completed and a cremation permit has been issued, all documents are reviewed, checked and verified.
Following verification the deceased is transported to the crematory.

A) Upon arrival at the crematory, a receipt is issued for the deceased with the following information:


a) Name of the deceased, date, time, company and individual transporting the deceased, type of cremation container, and individual receiving the deceased at the crematory.


B) Prior to placing the deceased into the cremation chamber, all authorization forms, cremation permit, and identification tags are verified by both the crematory operator and the person transporting the deceased to the crematory.


C) As the deceased is being placed into the cremation chamber, the permanent identification tag and second identification form are removed from the cremation container. The time is placed on both the permanent tag and the identification form. Both are placed on the front of the cremation chamber.

D) Upon completion of the cremation, the cremated remains are removed from the cremation chamber and both the permanent identification tag and the identification form are placed with the cremated remains.


E) The cremated remains are placed in the processing station which reduces the cremated remains to a consistent size through pulverization. Following this process all of the cremated remains are placed in a plastic bag with the permanent identification tag attached to the bag. The bag is placed in an unsealed corrugated temporary container with a second identification tag, cremation certificate, and completed cremation permit.


F) Upon receiving the cremated remains from the crematory, the permanent identification tag and completed Cremation Permit are verified. A receipt is signed for verification.


FOLLOWING CREMATION:

The Authorizing Agent has given instruction as to the type of container the cremated remains are to be returned in.


A) The permanent identification tag is verified and placed with the cremated remains into the container. Following placement into the container, an additional identification tag is placed on the outside of the container.

B) The cremated remains are returned to the Authorizing Agent or as listed on the Cremation Authorization Form as Final Disposition. A receipt is signed by the person taking possession of the cremated remains.


C) All cremation authorizations, permits and receipts are placed in the deceased’s permanent file and retained by the crematory . A monthly report for all cremations is filed with the Department of Health and Vital Records, the name of the crematory , the name of the deceased, date of death, place of death, county of death, state, facility or place of death, and the physician certifying the death.
