Broadcasting Funerals Over the Internet

from the making-bereavement-efficient dept

It sounds a little odd, but a funeral home is experimenting with broadcasting funerals over the internet for people who are far away and can't make the trip for a funeral. I'm not sure how I feel about this. Obviously, there are some good things about it, but it still feels like it would be wrong to watch a funeral via the internet.

    You could have banners selling flowers and cards on the site:

    "This box pops up, but your loved one won't. Click here to send flowers."
