A funeral director whose transparent approach to one of life’s enduring mysteries — the disposition of a loved one’s final remains — has returned to Lincoln County to begin a new enterprise, Advanced Funeral Services.

Hector Des Los Santos, who sold a thriving funeral service here 10 years ago to care for his mother in Arizona, recently opened the multi-faceted business at 135 NE 10th St. in Newport with the same “one-price guarantee” that 680 families welcomed in a time of unmatched stress.
