The Asteroid has hit the Earth ---Funeral Cost Vampires are turning into Dinosaurs

A time for honesty, here. Funeral Directors have gone the way of the dinousaur. Their role has changed. i believe that the day of Mr. Strongman and sometime thief way of the funeral director are over.

The family or more accurately a strong member of the a family can complete many of the duties of the funeral director.

A family member can handle the details of a memorial service. A service full traditional can be done in a church with actively involved clergy.A family member can do memorial boards power points and videos. A family member can write the eulogy, plan the order of service.

Strong family members can moderate a service, instruct ushers and park cars. Participation in the role of the funeral director brings about grief recovery and healing.

Good clergy will sit through the arrangements with a family and keep the funeral director honest.

Good funeral directors can make a living off lower cost funerals. It is a principle of business that lower cost high quality products are quite profitable.

Funeral Directors are needed for embalming, casketing, cremations and paperwork. Under the Funeral rule all the customers have the right of choice.

Like it or not the funeral industry, is abounding with preneed scandals. The public is aware of these things and is not ignorant. The funeral director has a responsibility to make all alternatives available to everyone. Most Funeral directors press in for the sale...and are not forthright about options available. These are funeral dinosaurs. NOW.

Funeral directors who are honest and helpful will survive. All folks will not go the way of eco friendly funerals or even home funerals. With all due respect many funeral directors are dinosaurs... those who are not are not stepping in the direction of the Funeral Consumers Alliance...are becoming dinosaurs.Black and white. does NOT apply to Funeral cost..

The public and academics are informed. The Asteroid has hit funeral industry earth and the dust has risen to blacken the sky. Only the HONEST will survive.

Funeral Cost Vampires are already turning into Dinosaurs.

check this out:

BEWARE OF FUNERAL COST VAMPIRES:

Did you know that on one side of town you can pay $500.00 for a cremation and on another side of town your cremation cost may mean $2200.00.

THIS FROM THE MAY 18th issue of the Arizona Republic:

“A “direct cremation” at Angels Cremation and Burial in Mesa is $475. At A-L Moore Grimshaw Mortuaries in Phoenix, expect to pay $2,195.

For a “traditional burial,” which includes basic services such as picking up the body, refrigeration, obtaining a death certificate and placing the body in a casket, a customer could pay $1,305 at Greer-Wilson Funeral Home in Phoenix. Or $4,700 at Phoenix Memorial Park and Mortuary.

Not including the cost of the casket.”

This comes from Edythe Jensen - The Arizona Republic
