Latham by Bill & Leslee McComb DEATH AWAY FROM HOME When a family member dies away from home on business or on vacation, there is under- standably a strong desire to bring the body home as soon as possible. However, factors such as the cause and location of the death can necessitate procedures that delay the re- turn. In addition, the body must likely be prepared and shipped in accordance with local laws. Faced with these complexities, family members are strongly encouraged to have a funeral home in their locality handle the arrangements. As the re- ceiving funeral home that is responsible for the funeral and burial services and the one to which the remains are con- signed, it is in the best position to personalize the services. At McCOMB FUNERAL HOME, we are experienced in successfully assisting those who must make arrangements for the return of a loved one's remains. Should you be faced with such an issue, call us im- mediately at 426-4803 We will guiale you through" the process. No detail is too large or too small for us to handle. We are located at 703 Rail- road Avenue. We have been serving your community with pride since 1893. You are our # 1 priority.
