I am all for giving the survivors more options. If someone wants to take on the responsibility for the after death care of their loved one they should be allowed to. It is probably not going to become fashionable enough that the funeral homes will feel any pinch. I think it rediculous that the funeral people are balking at this and made such silly comments as to having a body displayed on a public picnic table.
