Long Island woman devastated after grandfather’s ashes get lost in mail – ABC7 New York

Laura Helfner said his dying wish was that his ashes be buried next to his wife, and so the funeral home sent the ashes to Helfner in Dix Hills.

But she says the box was battered and ripped open when it arrived, and the urn and the ashes were gone.

“I was pretty shocked when I came home in anticipation of him arriving, and I came home to see the box,” she said. “And then the box was torn to shreds. And not only was it torn to shreds, it was empty.”
