Heartland funeral homes see increase in business
Heartland funeral homes see increase in business By Noelle Williams | January 22, 2021 at 9:45 PM CST - Updated January 22 at 10:30 PM
SIKESTON, Mo. (KFVS) - The pandemic is affecting a lot of industries and that includes the funeral business.
As the US averages over 4,000 deaths each day to COVID-19 some funeral homes are having a hard time keeping up.
“We’ve had an increase of about 15% of COVID-related deaths,” said Danny Kuykendall, Nunnelee Funeral Chapel manager in Sikeston.
He said their cremation rate has nearly doubled, and has seen immediate burials without any service at all.
