Many of the bodies are of people whose families can't be located or can't afford a proper burial, according to city officials. About 650 bodies are being stored in the trucks at a disaster morgue that was set up in April. Officials said they are having trouble tracking down relatives of about 230 deceased people. In cases like these, a spokeswoman said, it isn't uncommon for the deceased to have been estranged from families and for next-of-kin details to be dated or incorrect. When next of kin have been contacted, officials said most bodies haven't been collected because of financial reasons. New York City in May increased the burial assistance it offers low-income New Yorkers to help cover funeral costs, but the amount is still short of the average cost of a traditional service with burial or cremation in New York, according to the New York State Funeral Directors Association.
