AFTER reading in The Press of February 23 about cremation delays suffered by Margaret Dykes, I would just like say that many have suffered the same hardship.

My dear brother passed away on January 5 and his funeral wasn’t until January 28. Many of us have had the same delay but these things can’t be helped, so please don’t think you are the only family; these things are unforeseeable.
