The Covid virus is overwhelming the Undertakers and surviving family members are being surprised by the burial costs. The FTC is being urged to make "on line" pricing mandatory. The median cost for full burial in 2019 was $7640. A Minister in Kentucky describes how she helped a young man save $3000. by directing him to Costco to buy a coffin for his deceased mother. Who would have thought? As the saying goes "It isn't the cough that carries you off, it's the coffin they carry you off in."
