Burial/funeral question
My FIL just passed. We are out of state. The person at funeral home we need to speak to won’t be in until 3.
Do they still bury a person if the ground is frozen/covered in snow?
How long can they hold a body in NYS?
Anyone had any experience like this with a death in the dead of winter in NY? What is the protocol?
Thank you!

I’m so sorry. My grandmother died in January and yes, she was buried with snow on the ground. Nothing was any different than if it had been July.

Not a problem for the ground to be opened.

My mom passed feb 10 2007. Her funeral was two days later as per Jewish law. Ground was frozen and snowy. Didn’t matter.
