,,, a few years back I saw a movie where there were some kids and a mother who lived in the country in a two storey house. The mother lived downstairs and slept on a sofa because she was too big to ascend the stairs. She died and they knew they couldn't lift her out thru the front door, so they afforded her the dignity of leaving her on the sofa and torching the house to cremate her. Good film - wish I could recall the title.

'What's Eating Gilbert Grape' was the name of the film, I believe.

"What's Eating Gilbert Grape" is the movie. One of my all time favorites.

Somehow there's a billboard advertisement waiting to happen in this story...
