What The? Compton Drive Thru Funeral Home Becomes Popular [Video]

Video After The Jump

Peggy Scott Adams married into a family business that is quite different from most.  Her funeral home in Compton, California offers a person's family, friends and even sometimes complete strangers a chance to view their remains, without even having to get out of their car.

The Adams Mortuary was reportedly inspired by a couple of funeral homes in the south that offer the same drive thru service.

"It's a unique feature that sets us aside from other funeral parlors," Scott Adams told the L.A. Times. "You can come by after work, you don't need to deal with parking, you can sign the book outside and the family knows that you paid your respects - It's a convenience thing."

The funeral home is popular among gang members because of it's easy accessibility and bullet proof glass casing.

"It's a ministry for me to be able to help people at one of the most traumatic times of their life," Scott Adams says.

 

Would you be ok with a deceased loved one being viewed in this way?

This is ridiculous. Not everybody wants to see dead people in their travels. Whats next drive thru church? If so i would pull off rite before they pass the collection plate around. If times get too hard for me i might just pull off with the collection plate.

"He went plat after the D Block beef, GZA didn't do s***, Wayne didn't even make a diss and Camron even said it was 50 that broke up dipset. And to be honest we can only tell if 50's fallen off if his next LP doesn't sell."
