Starbucks In Funeral Homes?

A Starbucks will soon open in a funeral home in South Carolina, do you think this should be done locally?

 

According to ABC News, a Starbucks is going to open inside a funeral home in South Carolina. Patch wants to know what you think about this.

Those attending a funeral at the Robinson Funeral Home in Easley, S.C., will soon be able to order a frappuccino before paying their respects. According to ABC News, the owner is also installing an area with Wi-Fi, a television and fireplace in the funeral home.

What do you think about this? Are they taking it too far? Should funeral homes have televisions, wireless internet access and coffee shops? Do you think local funeral homes should have coffee shops? Let us know what you think in the comment section.

I think it's wrong. Funeral homes are for mourning and that should be it. Plusi know in Reading you cant eat or drink anything but water in a funeral home per board of health

OMG that is a horrible concept. Is Starbucks doing that bad financially that they will allow this?

Absolutely disrespectful to the deceased. You are there to pay your last respects. NOT order Starbucks, watch TV and update your Facebook account.
