This is from a few years ago, I hope for others sake they have changed. My wife died at home. We called the police. We told them we had no money to bury her. They told us the county had a deal with Strunk in Vero Bch. In an hour, they took her away. My adult children were not home. The next day, before she was cremated, they wanted to say good bye. They told us it would be $1300. We all knew even in the morgue she would have been "grey", and we told them it didn't matter. My kids just wanted one last good bye. They were firm. No money, no good bye. The reason they said was they would apply make up to her despite the fact we knew what we were going to see. I don't see how 5 minutes to put make up on cost $1300. My cousin works for a mortuary in another state and she thought the way we were treated was poor. I hope they changed things. read more
