xxxkgraham0565: THis appears to be a common name for funeral homes in Argentina. As a service provided by a funeral home, I think it refers to an ambulance service provided by a funeral home.

2 hrs

-> Thank you, kgraham0565 - at first, because of its relationship with "coche", I assumed it meant some sort of hearst transportation service; however, with the translation of "undertaker" I am under the impression that it is much more. - Mike :)

agree

Catherine Gilsenan: "funeral services" if you don't wish to use "undertakers"

3 hrs

-> Thank you, Catherine - Mike :)

agree

Christine Walsh: 'Cochería' is probably a reference to the hearse, from a time in which the laying out, wake, etc., were taken care of at home.

3 hrs

-> Thank you, Chriswa - that is what I had assumed, actually, obviously because of its relationship to "coche" - Mike :)
