Two funeral care workers have been sacked after the body of a man who weighed over 35-stone was stored in wash room for four-weeks. It is understood the deceased was allegedly kept within his coffin in a washing and dressing room rather than being refrigerated in the mortuary at the Co-operative s funeralcare home in Great Brook Street, Nechells, because of his size.
