The funeral home advertises that it will provide the facilities and supplies to do a Jewish funeral. Doing tahara is the Jewish community’s responsibility. The cost of importing one or more persons would be borne by the family.
I have a couple of questions about importing people:
· What if the cost of importing a person or a group is too much? Suppose, for example, the family is indigent.
· Would the timing make a difference? For example, what if the funeral were delayed several days before you could organize a proper tahara?
