Side tidbit....talking to a funeral home guy, he indicated that if a family buys a casket from Costco, they might find it a bit inconvenient finding any other services such as embalming.

Business is business, I guess.

My goal is always to avoid funeral directors anyway. I am not ready to quote a statute or anything, but I do not think embalming is legally required. I don’t think funeral services, aside from signing the death certificate, are otherwise legally required either, but I am pretty sure we will find out after this reply....... ;-)
