Tonight, I heard from a woman who says she left this same funeral home because she was “disgusted” by the lack of mask wearing/enforcement.

“... I wore my mask and was surprised to seeThe lady at the reception desk did not have a mask. I went in the room where Del Goodson was and there were quite a few people there I estimated 60 or 70 but maybe just 50...”
“... After I spoke to her husband I sat in a pew and counted only three people besides me that were wearing masks.

“...I went back and spoke to the receptionist and asked her why she didn’t have a mask and she said it wasn’t required. I also saw another employee without a mask. I decided it was too dangerous to stay and I left.”
Louisiana has a mask mandate in place by order of the Governor. Private businesses must comply. gov.louisiana.gov/assets/Proclam…
