Dear Ann Landers: This is a
very painful letter for me to write
but I need to get this off my chest
My mother passed away last
December after a long illness. She
had asked to be cremated. We con
tacted a funeral home and were
told, “We'll handle everything
Don't worry about a thing.” They
said they would deliver my mother's
remains to us within a week

Well, they did exactly that. The
funeral home messenger arrived at
my front door at the appointed time
with my mother's remains in a
CARDBOARD BOX. On top of th
box was a label which said, “T
Remains of ‘Ann Smith' — Tempo-
rary Container.”

Needless to say, I was totally
shocked, as was my sister, who was
visiting me at the time. After a few
moments of stunned disbelief, my
sister contacted the funeral home
and asked why in the world they did
this incredibly cruel and thoughtles:
thing. She was told, “If you are
interested, you can purchase an um
from us for your mother’s remains.”

I hope no one else ever has to go
through such a horrible experience.
We found out the hard way that
because it's difficult to think straight
at a time of great sorrow, it's a good
idea to have someone who is not
emotionally involved take charge of
the arrangements. I certainly wish
we had. — Still Upset in Girard,
Ohio.

Dear Ohio: The insensitivity of
the funeral director is beyond belief.
To send the remains of a loved one
in a cardboard box and suggest that
you might purchase an urn is
incredibly callous.

Girard, Ohio, is not a very large
town. When this letter appears in
print, there's going to be quite a lot
of conversation. I believe the facts
are as you stated them. If there's
more to the story, I'd like to hear
about it

My condolences to you and your
family on the loss of your mother
