“It could have been worse - glad he didn’t have a box of condoms laying around.”
A condom with a hole in it, just like he started out.
Sorry.
I don't know. But I had an LOL moment.
I have my mothers remains. If I were to open it and find she had been placed in a Wal-Mart bag....I can't help but think she'd laugh right along with me! She loved Wal-Mart!
Don't get me wrong. I loved my mom. But those ashes are not my mom!
Was the Wal-Mart smiley face turned in or out?
I’m sure that some places are reputable, but I have heard of others that have treated their work with no respect or care for the deceased. It’s horrible.
Lots of people want their ashes spread on ground they loved while they were alive. My cousin wants his ashes placed in a bottle of bubble bath and sent to Sandra Bullock's house... ;-)
You are correct. Funeral home business is shot thru with fraud & corruption .
Oh, wait......

“I find her story suspect.”
Me too. My Dad’s ashes were in a special paper and plastic container made especially for the mortuary. He insisted we go as cheaply as possible. (Really. He didn’t want us wasting a cent.) If that was as cheap as they could go, it was still very professional and nicely done.
Why would anyone want to open the urn?
My mom wanted her ashes thrown into the pacific ocean, my dad on the mountains over looking the ocean at sun set....that’s why
Its not them, its just ashes.
Well, at least she didn’t find them in a Walmart bag IN a Walmart store, which was the first vision that flashed through my brain when I first read the headline!
I lost a son, and I understand that she’s upset, but really....what difference does it make??? (i can’t believe that I just used those words...)
Not unless you’re going to scatter the ashes.
Walmart, Target, Macy’s? I can even see Ziploc and Glad joining in.
Everyone is gonna want a piece of this marketing fight to be the bag of choice to carry the dead.
She really just upset she lost her boy. Anything is a target right now.
Yes a bag from Victoria’s secret would have had a lot more class.
Maybe one day Walmart will offer Crematorium services.
Over in the back where they keep the tires, and fill the propane bottles.
Not a Michigan fan eh?
If she’s thinking lawsuit, it isn’t worth it.
