Subject: [WSBAPT] Burial at Home

Have a client that wants to be buried on her own property and stay out of the commercial funeral industry burial and services altogether. Anyone know how someone's surviving spouse or PR can get physical possession of the body and bury it on their property - or is there some law against that sort of thing. She does not want to be cremated which would be the simple solution. Always something new.

Sincerely,

Tom
