No Maple both mum's brothers and their wives lived in Canada they were all in the funeral home when they died (one Nova Scotia the other Cassiar) but here it is common to have the body in the family home and as sunflower has said very often we only get the order on the afternoon before the funeral which is very short notice if it is a 10 am funeral sometimes the order would come in on the morning of the funeral the shop I work in now always have 3 sprays 3 wreaths and 3 posies made and in the cooler we always have lots greened ready to be flowered after lunch each Sat we must check how many of each are left and then start greening up we must have 20 of each greened ready to be flowered
