Most people think there are two basic body disposition options – burial and cremation. Not true! There are many more than that, several of which are far more affordable than the “standard offerings” from a funeral home. We will discuss the body disposition options available in Maine and review and discuss the “The Funeral Rule,” a law implemented and enforced by the Federal Trade Commission in 1984 (amended in 1994) to protect consumers when purchasing funeral goods and services. In short, protecting consumers from unscrupulous selling practices in the funeral industry. *Individually wrapped, homemade skull cakelets will be provided.
