If the authorizing agent is not available in person to execute the cremation authorization form, then the authorizing agent may send the crematory a notarized facsimile transmission stating that the person is legally entitled to authorize the cremation and stating the name, address, and relationship of the sender to the decedent. The crematory authority may rely upon the facsimile -transmitted cremation authorization form to perform the cremation without liability. The facsimile -transmitted cremation authorization form shall be followed by the original delivered by certified mail.
