For those of you who always make an issue of money and time, why don't you all just dump your folks overboard or burn them when they go? You folks love to criticize tradition, but I have yet to see sons/daughters(you) opposing the CLAN and extended families. It's understandable where the state stands, funeral homes/mortuaries needs to keep up with regulations whether someone's body needs to sit on ice for months or not, proper refrigeration is a must. Failure to do so may result suspension or fines. I hope the involved parties can sort out their problems soon. People are dying left and right.
