Sullivan's Funeral Home

About This Item

Sullivan's Funeral Home and parking lot. In the early months of the AIDS crisis, many funeral homes refused to deal with deaths from AIDS. Funeral homes seem to be a dying business as more and more people choose cremation. Many, many San Francisco funeral homes have gone out of business. One wonders how long this funeral home will last at this site.
