Great for everyone that is disabled or in a hurry. Maybe you can place your order for your casket at the same time that you are at the drive-thru.

Yes, at the Robert L. Adams Mortuary in Compton, south of Los Angeles, it is possible to view the deceased resting in a casket display window while cruising past in your car, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday.

I wouldn't want to be at the drive-thru viewing when the deceased decided to wave at you!! LOL

I remember years ago people saying, tongue-in-cheek, that one day there would be drive-through funeral parlors.

Never say never, I guess.

W T F...Just goes to show, when you think that you've heard it all !..If this is true, there must be drive up sex somewhere? How would that work? Didn't I hear that Vegas was closing down legal prostitution?....I view prostitution and Gambling the same, They will never stop it, why try?

I'm not quite sure if I would even want to be around in 50 years? What will they do then, send a Hologram via email? lol
