I'm glad to hear some families still do southern funerals old-school. Somewhere along the line my family slid in to this new-fangled business of visitations at the funeral home. While being free of 12 gelatin salads and 16 pound cakes, and the hours of sitting around with relatives that entails, may sound great, when they quit doing it, it feels weird.
