(CNN) -
Chris Robinson's family is used to being a bit ahead of the curve.

After selling caskets at a general store in Easley, S.C., an ancestor opened a funeral location in a separate building. Most other parlors in town operated in homes converted for the purpose...

The public will be able to access the coffee area from a patio. Inside they will find tables, a fireplace, television, cash register and Wi-Fi.

That's awesome. It would be such a bother to miss a game for a viewing.

And I foresee frequent FB updates saying, "I see dead people"
 
I'll take a Venti mocha, no whip, hold the embalming fluid.
 
I wonder if they serve Cremora in urns?
I heard this one on the radio "Roast in peace".

I like the comment below the article about Starbucks coffee being very strong (I agree!) but that it isn't likely to wake the dead :D

Well, I guess it's the best place to get coffee if you're just dying for a cup. :dunno:

I think that chain serving stiff drinks would have been more appropriate.
 
It would probably put the fun back into the funeral
