“It Happened 1,000 Miles From Home”
“We were on our vacation when it happened. Some funeral
director near at h«-nd would have to be called and we were 1,000
miles from home, among strangers.
“Then Ruth remembeied having read of your connection with
other funeral directors all over the country. By telegraphing you
the family away from home would be placed in touch with the
local funeral director representing you. In this way the family
wouldn’t have to pick out some funeral director they didn't'know
about.
“So, as you know, we notified you and in a short time receiv
ed a wire naming your representative. From that time until we
had father back home everything worked so smoothly it seemed
almost as though you were in active charge.”
