SAGINAW, Mich. (AP) — Only a couple of families have taken advantage of a new service available at a Saginaw funeral home.

Drive-thru viewings.

Paradise Funeral Chapel recently started offering the option, which allows mourners to pay their last respects on the go. It was designed in part to cater to those with physical limitations.

For the mourner who really doesn't care all that much. They should add a party store.

For the mourner who might hear of my death, bring your own beer and brats to the celebration......and some one willing to take car of my cat.

They should my an old drive in movie theater and have funerals there.

You could drive past the casket, go park and hang the speaker from your window. (or tune in on the radio these days)

You still have a drive-in movie theater over there?

[cripplecreek]

I know where a few were.

There’s one still operating on US-12 down to Coldwater. I saw Kung Fu Panda and the last Indiana Jones movie there a few years back. They were doing a booming business with 2 screens showing 4 movies a night.

There’s one still operating

Then there's still life in America...........

I’d rather go to a drive in than an indoor theater. Now that they can broadcast the audio for car radio there’s no reason they couldn’t have movies during the winter.

Still its a summer thing. Its nice to be able to kick back or set up some lawn chairs in the truck etc.

Capri drive in Coldwater MI. The photo must have been taken the summer I was down that way.

So if the deceased is named Jack... Would this be a “Jack in the Box” drive through?

Kind of like In and Out, only different.

Wow, that’s not even dated. Cannibalism, vomiting, John Cleese’s mother... all right off this week’s pages of the Daily Mail.

The mark of great art is that each generation reinterprets it anew.

I heard about it earlier today. It’s a busy place for the regular funerals.

“This has been tried before — it failed because there weren’t that many dead people driving around.”

Should put it next to a polling place.

In their off time, they double as a wedding chapel where elopers are married by Elvis.

DANG!
