New Jersey Woman Sues Funeral Home Over Father's Remains
News summary

Debbie Uraga, a 69-year-old woman from New Jersey, has filed a lawsuit against John F. Pfleger Funeral Home after discovering that her father, George Jonas Sr., was never buried in the family plot as she believed for 31 years. Following a Facebook message from a U.S. Air Force veteran, Uraga learned that her father's cremated remains had been kept in the funeral home's basement since his death in 1993. The funeral home claims they attempted to contact Uraga for final disposition instructions, a statement she refutes, asserting that she was never contacted despite living close by. Uraga's lawsuit accuses the funeral home, cemetery, and a church of misrepresentation and causing her emotional distress. The funeral home maintains that they handled the cremation with care but acknowledges missing files that could clarify the situation. Uraga has since received her father's remains and is determined to ensure he receives a proper burial.
