And I do not just mean for Coronavirus victims.

I assume they are doing small, close family only. Or are people putting off services?

The Catholic Church is only doing small graveside services.

This was brought up in the JBE press conference but I missed his answer
I think they are doing immediate family services only

My first cousin lost his two year old grandson to freak pneumonia last week and my BIL here in Baton Rouge passed away on Saturday. Funerals are planned. The one in Baton Rouge was moved out of the funeral home however because of Corona virus to a place of worship and I expect the majority of the service will be open air.

I have left instructions for Poultry Boy to conduct my services on the OT because I feel I love you baws more than my friends and family.

I drove by a graveside service of 30-35 people day before yesterday and they were most definitely not 6 feet apart.

I saw one obituary that said only immediate family will be attending, but other friends and family are encouraged to watch the funeral via livestream.

A good friend of the family passed two days ago. It will just be his family at the graveside. Memorial service whenever the virus is under control.

I went to one Thursday. Short visitation at the funeral home.

Graveside service held inside a smallish mausoleum. Maybe 40 people there.

I heard JBE is soon starting mass graves. If your business got affected and you lost your job, there’s definitely an influx of ditch diggers needed.

Actually everyone who dies now is a coronavirus victim
