It APPEARS that Connecting Directors.Com may have sold out to the leaders in the Traditional Funeral Industry. On August 31st, 2009 Connecting Directors introduced a new website, but kept the name. Two years of Funeral industry posts and comments on NPS(National Prearranged Services), the National Funeral Directors Association(NFDA), Service Corporation International, the Illinois Funeral Directors Association(IFDA), Neptune Society and other Funeral, Cemetery and Pre-need NEWS GONE
Since I have now Confronted one of the Owners on this matter, I share my Comment made at ConnectingDirectors.Com.
“We stop thinking that the word “cremation” automatically means “direct cremation” and realize that cremation doesn’t have to equal recession. We remember that the service provided by funeral directors is unmatched by any other industry”
RYAN, PLEASE BE SERIOUS. FOLKS PURCHASE CREMATION(mostly) BECAUSE THEY WANT TO SAVE ON FUNERAL and BURIAL COST.THEY PAY LESS.
A 38% CREMATION RATE in 2009 means Funeral Industry Recession.“Above all else we continue to over shadow the few bad apples with honesty and integrity and help families put respect and honor back into the grieving process.”
This is flat out Denial Ryan-You eliminated two years of Funeral scandal reporting with not bringing over the reporting and discussion of Scandal on the old connectingdirectors.com. Please Archive archive and bring back those posts-What you have done here is NOT PUT RESPECT AND HONOR BACK in THE GRIEVING PROCESS.
It is not honesty and integrity to Eliminate two years of NPS, IFDA, RANDALL L. EARL, NFDA, SCI, STEWART ENTERPRISES, Scandal posts and discussions.”
