When Keelia Carver’s 4-year-old son Max died, she wanted to take his body home to bury him on the family’s ranch. She says state and hospital authorities stood in her way and she didn’t know her rights under Oregon law. Now Oregonians like Carver who want to take a do-it-yourself approach to funerals have a new resource. Oregon Funeral Resources & Education is a website aimed at educating people about their legal rights and providing practical "how to" information about home funerals. We hear from Carver, who worked on the website and has become a home funeral advocate, along with Holly Pruett, a home funeral guide who also worked on the website.
