Moderator: I posted this story earlier and I think it was (seemingly) inadvertently combined with a story about Terri Schiavo having communion. Other than a brief mention, this is obviously a different story. If you combine it again or lock it, I will not post it again. Maybe there is a link to the two stories that I don't understand? Either way this is a story that anyone following the Schiavo story would definitely want to hear.

Now Terri's family starts squabble over her funeral

RICHARD LUSCOMBE
IN PINELLAS PARK, FLORIDA
-----------------------------
THE legal fight to keep brain-damaged Terri Schiavo alive appeared to be over last night, but a new row erupted between her husband and her parents over what will happen to her body after she dies.

Michael Schiavo, who had his wife’s feeding tube removed by court order ten days ago, has made arrangements for her to be cremated and her ashes interred in his family’s plot in Pennsylvania.

But Bob and Mary Schindler want their daughter to have a Roman Catholic funeral service and to be buried near their home in Clearwater, Florida. They are also furious that her husband denied her an Easter communion.

(snip)

Michael Schiavo’s lawyer, George Felos, said a judge had already backed the cremation plan. "My client will scrupulously follow the court order," he said. "Her ashes will be interred in the Schiavo family plot in Pennsylvania, where Terri and Michael grew up."
