Located in Whittier, California, with approximately 1,400 acres of property for current use or future development, Rose Hills is considered to be the largest single-operated cemetery in the world. Although it is purposely secluded, Rose Hills is only minutes away from any point in the Greater Los Angeles or Orange County area, and offers a full range of funeral services to meet the memorialization needs of Southern California families. Rose Hills is owned by a public company traded on the NYSE, Service Corporation International. (SCI) is North America's leading provider of deathcare products and services. At December 31, 2007, SCI operated 1,329 funeral service locations and 366 cemeteries (including 207 combination locations) in North America, which are geographically diversified across 43 states, eight Canadian provinces, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Our funeral segment also includes the operations of 13 funeral homes in Germany that we intend to exit when economic values and conditions are conducive to a sale. As part of the Alderwoods Group, Inc. (Alderwoods) transaction, we acquired Mayflower National Life Insurance Company (Mayflower), an insurance business that we sold in July 2007. The operations of this business through the date of sale are presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated statement of operations. This is a $ 2.2 billion revenue company.
