June 2008-Your Funeral Guy: Dear Abby Hosts obit Photo- Funeral Cost Discussion I have never heard Funeral cost -obituary cost put quite this well. ” Grieving Families do not realize the cost until the bill arrives” Grief Stricken funeral cost price gouging must be stopped.
“The fees for obituaries are exorbitant. A simple Sunday announcement can run more than $200. The “helpful” editors have all kinds of stock phrases they offer that increase the size of the ad — and that’s exactly what it is — and bump up the cost. Grieving families often don’t realize the cost until the bill arrives. Like “Snapshot,” I find it ghoulish, just another way to soak the grief-stricken.”
