Andrea, are doctors greedy thieves? Social Workers? School Teachers? They all get a salary / wage and do a service for the community. I am a funeral director, i have a wife and four children. I do not own the Funeral Home. I do my best to serve the families that come through the door, but if charging them is thievery, then I am guilty. Just because a horrible thing (a death) has occurred, do you think the hospital bills will not come? The debtors? This is life. We serve the families, help them chose dignified services they can afford and then they will return. I will never be made to feel guilty for charging for the HARD work that I do. Once you start giving up part of your income to help those that can’t afford to do things then come at me
