Two northeast Iowa funeral homes have been disciplined by the State Board of Mortuary Science.
According to the board, Charles Geilenfeld, director for Geilenfeld Funeral Home in Oelwein, was accused of letting his funeral director's license expire in April 2008 and not reinstating it until November 2009. While his license was inactive, Geilenfeld continued to provide mortuary services. He was assessed a civil penalty of $500 and placed on one year's probation.
Grau Funeral Home in Elgin and director Joshua C. Grau were accused of failing to get proper authorization before embalming and cremation while he was associated with Leonard Funeral Home, which is no longer licensed.
The funeral home and Grau were reprimanded, assessed a $1,000 civil penalty and given a year's probation.
