HOME FUNERALS AND GREEN BURIALS

Most people are unaware of the options to a traditional funeral. On Tuesday, Oct. 13 at 6:30 p.m. Iowa Valley Continuing Education offers a class on home funerals and green burials. Although these options were common practice years ago, they are relatively unknown today.

Join Mary McBee as she explains the home funeral - a practice that is legally acceptable. McBee has done extensive research on the laws, regulations, customs and examples of funerals and burials. This class will meet at IVCE, Room 801, 3702 S. Center St., Marshalltown. Even if you don’t plan to practice a home burial, this is a fascinating presentation. Come learn the legal aspects, the ecological considerations, and the aspect of cost as related to these options.
Cost of the class is $15. Call 641-752-4645 to register.
