From Wikipedia:

LaLanne was born in San Francisco, California,[3] to Jennie (née Garaig) (1884–1973) and Jean/John LaLanne (1881–1939). His parents were immigrants from Oloron-Sainte-Marie in southwest France. LaLanne had two older brothers, Ervil, who died in childhood (1906–1911), and Norman (1908–2005), who nicknamed him "Jack."

"Eleven days before they have the funeral is a long time. What’s the legal limit?"

They forgot to check the "bury by" date.
