Exactly Gad. Doesn't matter what you buy when your prices are severely out of line with the local competition. You can't have direct cremations for 2, 3, and 4 thousand dollars more than your nearest competitor. They bought alot of funeral homes too, which they drove into the ground. They'le do the same with the crematories. Cap? Give you an example of why other funeral homes don't use corporate crematories. The cremation authorization form is like filling out an application to buy the Trump towers. Families get very upset and it frightens them.
