Joshua Slocum, Executive Director of Funeral Consumers Alliance 802-865-8300

Josh gave us an overview of many of the wrongdoing his group has seen, like: funeral homes having a casket handling fee and telling people embalming is required by law and he said he would not be surprised to find out Funeral Chains sponsoring memorial books for notables, like Pres. Reagan and Nascar Heroes could be photocopying these registrations for their pre planning department before mailing them to the family. He has seen hundreds of illegal general price lists, if you would like him to check yours please be in touch with him.
