SUMMARY
Where an individual specifies the method of disposition of his
or her remains in a fully paid funeral contract of which he or she is
the purchaser and beneficiary, the individual's agent under a statutory
durable power of attorney may not change the method of disposition.
If the agent under a statutory durable power of attorney cancels a
prepaid funeral contract purchased by the principal for him or herself,
the principal's written directive in the contract regarding disposition
of his or her remains is not canceled.
Very truly yours,
GREG B BOTT
Attorney al of Texas
