[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was invented as a ploy for funeral homes to make more money. Don't fall for it. It's not a tradition in any way, shape or form.[/quote] I'm 20:36. For family only, we were able to see the body in the casket without embalming. I believe there was a prep fee, but it wasn't as expensive as embalming and I'm not sure what "extra" was done vs. just leaving the casket closed or if it cost more than that would have anyway, other than giving us a time to show up and a nice parlor room. Obviously the whole casket/vault/plot, etc. is more expensive than cremation, but this was not a person who wished to be cremated in any case, so that was already being paid.[/quote]
