Stench of Neglect: The Far South Side Funeral Home Debacle The discovery of over 50 decomposing bodies at a Far South Side funeral home in Chicago is a stark reminder of systemic failures that can lead to unimaginable suffering for those who have lost loved ones.
The deplorable conditions, including rodent and maggot infestations, found at the South Chicago Chapel are an affront to decency and a gross dereliction of duty by those entrusted with caring for the deceased.
State regulators suspended the funeral director's license after the discovery, but this is not an isolated incident.
