What a crazy way to run a business. I've been helping a friend whose father is dying. I emailed three funeral homes in the area and two of them immediately sent me service and price information. However, Lawrence Gutterman ignored most of my emails and when he did respond, he asked me to call. I explained that I didn't even know what the family wanted and was just gathering preliminary info for them. Then he wrote "As I have repeatedly told you... I will give you pricing information if you call. Otherwise, I do not mail, fax, email or send price lists in any fashion." Rude,
