My Father always had a fear of flying , so he was worried that his remains would be flown from Arizona to Missouri .
I told my Mother to tell him that I would drive his body back to Missouri when the time came & tell him when She felt the time was right .
My Brother In law had a Chev. Love with the long bed & camper shell , & being as I worked at a Funeral Home as a senior in High School I knew that they had a Casket Cover for transportation I asked the Funeral Home In Coolidge ,Az . if they could get me the paper work for transporting the body to Missouri & also the loan of the cover .
We Drove straight thru to Missouri about 23 hrs with out a hitch , My only Hope is That he was rested in peace , His oldest Son .

Evidently that is not too uncommon.

There was an elderly couple I knew through church. Some years earlier their son died of an illness.

His prepaid plot was several states away, and the transportation fee was astronomical!

They were able to pick up the body at the funeral home and move it to the cemetery, really no questions asked, no permit, just take it and go.
