Dear Ann Landers,
see by the wire services that a morti-cian in Georgia has gone in for drive-in display windows for those who want to view a deceased friend or relative but are too busy to park their cars and come inside. The mortician is constructing five windows six feet long-just the right size for an open coffin. The display will face a driveway at the side of the funeral home which is located on a busy street. The de-ceased will be lying in a lighted window, slightly tilted to make viewing easier. The mortician who dreamed up the idea says people seem to like it. According to him, folks are in a hurry these days and the drive-in display means they can come any hour of the day or night and they don't have to get dressed in their good clothes.-Concerned

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
