Silva Funeral Home, Inc
Has Broken Federal Law By Charging Customers To Provide Their Own Casket

Silva Funeral Home, Inc. Is attempting to charge grieving families an additional $900 if they want to supply their own casket for a funeral, which they have the Federal Right to do so.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has a law called "The Funeral Rule" (http://www.ftc. Gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/products/pro26. Shtm) which clearly states that a funeral home in the United States can NOT charge you a fee for providing your own casket.
However, Silva Funeral Home, Inc., Located at 80 Broadway, Taunton, MA, is doing just that. A complaint has been filed with the FTC.
Silva Funeral Home, Inc. Has two seperate "Basic Service Fees For Funeral Director and Staff". The lower priced fee ($1495) is if you purchase a casket through them (at a huge mark-up of approx. 300% - 500%) while the more expensive fee ($2395) is if you supply your own casket.
