FLYING HEARSE: A forward-looking Benton Harbor mortician, when called to pick up the body of a deceased man in Ann Arbor, dispatched his airplane instead of a hearse or ambulance for the task. Shown above as it prepared to take off from the Ann Arbor airport is the twin-engined plane of the Dean Mortuary of Benton Harbor. Helping place the body in the craft are Theodore A. Hoffman, (center, with back to camera), assistant manager of the Dolph funeral home of Ann Arbor, and Herbert Kerkhoff, right, a helper at Dolph's.
