Description
The cremated remains of Frederick Keck were in 1932 interred in a niche in the columbarium in Cypress Lawn Memorial Park. In 1943 the cremated remains of the wife of William H. Warren were interred in the adjoining niche. Mr. Warren desiring to place his wifes ashes in the niche occupied by the ashes of Frederick Keck got in touch with the closest surviving relatives of the decedent Keck, two nieces and a nephew. Mr. Warren represented to them that he had arranged and paid for a perpetual weekly flower display for the niche in which his wifes ashes were interred, that the flowers could be more symmetrically displayed if her ashes were transferred to the niche occupied by the ashes of their uncle, and that if the transfer could be arranged he would also purchase and pay for a perpetual flower display for the niche to which their uncles ashes would be transferred. The nephew and nieces acquiesced, and joined with Mr. Warren in filing a petition in the superior court for authority to transfer their uncles ashes. This petition purported to be filed pursuant to sections 7526-7527 Health and Safety Code. At the hearing of the petition Babette M. Levingston appeared and opposed the granting of the petition. The court denied the petition upon the ground, among others, that the court was without jurisdiction of the subject matter under section 7528 of the Health and Safety Code. From this order the petitioners have appealed and that appeal is numbered herein 12884.
