Cremated Wrongly Buried Beside Husband
from Columbus News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A funeral home in central Ohio is facing backlash after cremating an 83-year-old woman who had explicitly requested to be buried beside her late husband — a wish they initially honored before making a devastating mistake. The family sued, forcing a court order to exhume her husband’s coffin, while the funeral home admitted fault, refunded all fees, covered costs for a second funeral home to fulfill the request, and fired the employee involved. Despite their apology and efforts to make amends, the family’s attorney seeks $7 million — a sum the funeral home says could bankrupt them and limit options for grieving families in the region.
