Your Funeral Guy: Last Nite on Fox News

Last nite on tv I was flipping through the News and on Fox, I heard a funeral guy say on Sheppard Smith”s show say that things  are going to stay good for the funeral industry because there will be more people with malnutrition  dying due to the economy!

What on the good earth is this?A professional stating publicly that folks dying  is good?

Plus these Funeral directors need to adjust to the fact that people are paying less and they will need realize the reality that funeral homes will be expected to do more low cost funeral deals!

With economic down turn folks are demanding more lower cost funerals.The National Funeral Directors Association is stating  the average cost of a funeral is $7,323 USD.

With burial costs this can come to over $10,000 USD.

FYI cremation expenses should come in between $800 and $1500 USD. Some Funeral homes charge up to $2800 for a cremation. Buyer  beware of the Funeral Directors take pride in their ability to raise the average cost of a cremation funeral.

Be sure to let me know how you lowered your funeral expenses.
