Megan Hess, who formerly operated Sunset Mesa Funeral Directors in Montrose, had sought a delay in federal court.
With her mother, Shirley Koch, Hess was charged with six counts of mail fraud involving 38 decedents, and with three counts of violating the regulations for shipping hazardous materials, in this instance, body parts of three decedents who were positive for hepatitis-C.

GIVES US GAS: Gasbuddy is an app that helps you find cheap gas on the road and offers other tips. They come up with interesting tidbits now and then. According to a recent study, here are habits that are costing you cash:

•Not paying attention: 83% of drivers purchase gas, only to drive by a cheaper gas station moments later

•Convenience is costly: Four out of five drivers have a station they regularly go to out of habit, missing out on nearby savings

•Not swiping smart: Nearly half of drivers swipe with credit, however, more than half of cardholders do not make regular payments on their credit cards, negating any cashback benefits

Hungry?
How about this weather? It is plenty chilly and makes me want a warming, comforting, easy-to-make meal. There is not much better than a bowl of chili on a chilly day, wouldn't you say?
