The time for funeral homes to prepare is now!

Written by Norman Hunter

The Y2K computer bug and the problems it may cause has been heavily publicized in the media. But simply talking about the problem will not make it go away. Take action now by learning what you, as a funeral home owner or manager, can do to prevent your business from being disrupted by the Y2K bug. Y2K Contingency Planning—The time for funeral homes to prepare is now! includes specific advice for funeral directors preparing for Y2K. It includes a list of items funeral directors should have on hand before the end of 1999 in case the Y2K bug affects them. The article was written by Norman Hunter, a funeral director with Ziemer Funeral Homes in Evansville, Indiana.
