Some funeral home mistakes are beyond outrageous. The son of an Alabama woman whose body was
found decomposing in the back of a hearse says he thought
his mother’s remains had been cremated two years ago.
Ted Kirby of Chattanooga, Tenn., said he can’t believe what
happened after the death of his mother, 52-year-old Edna Kathleen
Woods, in November 2007.
The owner of a Gadsden funeral home was charged with corpse
abuse this week after police found Woods’ decomposing remains in
the back of a parked hearse. Police say the funeral director told
them the woman’s family never paid him.
But the woman’s son said that’s not true. He said an insurance
company told him it had paid for funeral services. If your love one has been the victim of a funeral home mistake please call the Law Offices of Henry E. Gare at (904) 387-6101 for a free consultation.
