What does a person do when a death has occurred away from home and he or she does not know a local funeral director?
Call the hometown funeral director of your choice. He or she will be willing to make arrangements with a funeral director in the town where death occurred. You can expect him or her to handle the many details which arise when death is away from home. Select your local funeral director wisely, then let him or her accomplish what you want whether it means a funeral at the place of death, back home, both or neither.
