One of the workers at the funeral directors???......that is a fuking disgrace mate.....write an official complaint to them. You will get a free funeral with all the trimmings and that prik WILL get fired. Utter disgrace and all you need at this most difficult of times.

If he'd said nowt and just took the cross - that's one thing.
He was incredibly insensitive but at least he was open about it!

Seriously i have never heard of anything in such bad taste.

FUKING PIGS...make sure you follow this one through Nick. Its the last thing you need righ now but it cannot be accepted.

Get a friend of the family to deal with this for you; so you can all give your mother the send of she deserves.

STOP....

Chill out....

and breathe....

right, now common sense has returned - make a formal complaint about the unprofessional way in which you have been treated.

Do not rise to the bait of some ******.

Sorry to hear about your Mum

If the circumstances are true then it's a police matter as whoever offered to buy the jewellery obviosly did not know who had legal title of the item but still tried to "buy" it ..

That is not even on the bad taste scale

If it's not too late and you have any concern that it has been taken without the family's permission I would ask the undertaker to return it to you and a member of the family can place it on the coffin itself. A bit of a last resort I know but it will give you peace of mind. And your Mum

I'm not surprised though. I'm not saying all undertakers rip you off, of course they don't! but I have read all sorts of stories - things like before the cremation, one undertakers had been found to go round unscrewing all the gold bits on expensive coffins, so they could be re-used again on the next!!

when I go, I want the cheapest possible box (cardboard would be fine!)

Nick, as angry as you rightfully feel the best thing you can do is lodge a formal complaint with the funeral directors. This must be eating you alive but you do not want this to be your overriding memory of your mum so just complain and let it go for your own sanity.

There is no excuse for stealing any kind of valuable from a dead person.. It would have been left there deliberately by the person's family so getting possession of it like that is straightforward theft, and particlularly bad as well to take advantage of such a situation.

I would make sure the thief goes down for a stretch.

What thief??....what theft?....Nothings been stolen.

Offering to buy something from a lost family member is not theft, is it the lowest of the low. But alarmingly i wonder how many people actually just say "yeh ok"....as awful as it is, i would guess he has done it before, probably with success. Still is all wrong,

FUKING PIG, aweful situation all round

It was presumably left there by the family for specific reasons. To try to get one of the family to sell it is effectively theft from the rest of the family but in truth from the lady in the coffin if you think about it.
