Hillenbrand  Inc NYSE:HI, parent company of Batesville Casket Company is telling the World The Traditional US Funeral Business is in  Decline. They have sent  Four Signals to the world recently.

1).2009 Year end Financial report- Revenue Loss. 2.) Purchase of Rights to Burial Vaults 3.) Major purchase  of non Funeral Manufacturer K-Tron 4.) Entry into the online obituary and memorials Market with ObitLink.

It seems that the burial vault purchase, the large non funeral industry corporate purchase, and the entry into the online memorial  obituary business  all follow from the 2009 revenue Loss.

The significance here is that the leading casket maker in the world(NYSE:HI) has for the first time gone outside the casket sale and outside the  funeral industry to increase revenue. This is a sure indication of  the Funeral Industry  as we know it’s decline.

The Four signals sent.

1).2009 Year end Financial report- Revenue Loss.

2.) Purchase of Rights to Burial Vaults

3.) Major purchase  of non Funeral Manufacturer K-Tron

4.) Entry into the online obituary and memorials Market

After Obtaining the login information  there is  a decision  that must be made.  Do You Want to do a Facebook Memorial. OR Do you just want to close Your Loved Ones account?(Simply delete the account to close the loved ones account.) Proceed this way if you want a Facebook memorial.

1.contact information,

2.membership in online groups,

3. “personal information ” {favorites-  books, movies, quotations, etc). and that is only bringing your loved one to the Facebook funeral home.) It is a no cost removal- a hearse or a van is not used!}

4. What happens next for about  a month, the user’s Wall, photographs, and basic info( the hometown, the  birthdate, the religion)  stay.( a funeral that lasts a month, i have never seen that!). MEMORIALS ARE THEM POSTED ON THE USERS WALL

Reports are stating that the Michael Jackson funeral-burial will cost over 1 Million dollars. A  judge ruled that the Michael Jackson Estate should pay for his burial. on Wednesday. The burial will take place at 7pm on Friday. September 3rd, 2009

From showbiz411.blogs.thr.com

“the Jackson family didn’t have the money to bury Michael. They didn’t have it in July, when they put on a big show before and after the Staples Center memorial. The estate wound up paying for that, I’m told, and it cost north of a half a million dollars including all the limos, flowers, and the big party at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel.”
