Hello Tracy and Trish. I’ve never commented before but wanted to say how comforting this video is. My husband had to have an autopsy and it was such an awful time. My mind went into overdrive with terrible thoughts. I wasn’t allowed to see him and I have struggled with that. But listening to you both you have helped me so much. Tracy you are so kind and you and Trish are special. I was a hospice nurse until a few years ago but my husband died suddenly and just felt so awful that I couldn’t see him to say goodbye. Love to you both and thank you for all that you do xx
Oh we are so very sorry to hear you lost your husband suddenly 😞 sending you are deepest condolences hope you are looking after yourself. Tracy here I totally understand your loss my mum was killed while abroad on holiday and she too had an autopsy and her injuries were to bad and we were never allowed to see her. It has taken me many years to come to terms with her death and never been able to see her but I understand now and know what happens in the care given after death this has helped me. It is a tough grieving journey to travel and some day can be hard but I have learnt to try and bring the happy memories to the front of my mind and thankful for the time I had with my mum ❤️ thank you for sharing your story and if we helped you in a tiny way we are so very touched. Take good care 💚💚
Thank you so much for your reply Tracy🧡. I am so sorry for what happened to your mum. Thank you for all the comfort you bring to us and for your honest answers to everyone’s questions. Sending love to you and Trish xx
Thank you so much 🙏 hope you are doing ok 💚💚
This is why this channel is so worthwhile. There is so much misinformation and misunderstanding.
A friends wife is a florist she confirms (apart from Mother's Day and Valentine's Day) her busiest time is in the winter for floral tributes for funerals for the elderly.
Thank you so much Steve 💚💚
@@Areyoudyingtoknow Agreed Steve. I’m a retired florist and do remember many funerals Jan/Feb
In the UK, it has been know for legs to be broken after death in order to lie the person flat. I was a witness to this happening to an elderly person who had died in a chair at home. My experience was 10 years ago so I don't know if it would happen now, but it certainly did used to happen over here.
Oh my goodness that's just awful 😞 lest hope it doesn't happen anymore 🤞 Thank you for your comments take care 💚💚
Back in the early 80s my mother-in-law was cremated. It was one of the very few lawsuits of mixing ashes. I have dear friends in the mortuary we deliver flowers to and they assured me cremated remains in this day are carefully done. No one needs to worry these days. The rules are very strict about this. ♥️🐩
Thanks for sharing this elderly poodle, that would have been upsetting and difficult to prove I'd imagine. Yes, these days I think standards are much higher in general and the threat of media exposure and litigation also help keep things functioning as they should. We appreciate you sharing your story xx
Here in Barbados we have the option of renting a fancy looking casket in which a liner cremation box is placed that slides out to then be cremated whenever. The fancy casket is used to house the body during the church service
Hi Geriann, we have heard of these before. We don't use them here in Queensland Australia as far as I am aware. Thanks for sharing 😊💚💚
Also you asked somewhere about what's my favourite artery to raise. If I am just doing a TP, I love to raise the axillary artery, I always find this the easiest one to raise. On a full embalm I like restricted cervical injection. 😊💚💚
Just recently started watching your videos. All your topics are are so interesting. I feel that by learning about your profession makes us less uncomfortable and less scared. Thank you so much for sharing your passion.
Hi Anne, welcome to the channel and we are both happy to have you on board 😊 thank you for your kind words too ☺️ take good care 💚💚
You two ladies bring so much peace to us who grieve
Thank you so much for your kind words 🙏💚💚
love knowing your mortuary myths Tracey always good to know
Thank you Natalie 💚💚
Another very informative video on this gem of a channel! Thanks, ladies! While I didn't personally believe in any of these myths, it's still nice to get extensive answers with so much information. There's just so much to say about this profession.
With regards to the name plates in the ashes: I was told by an archaeologist here who works mostly with human remains and therefore is in touch with people of the crematorium (for learning) that here sometimes family members who get the ashes of their loved one will scatter the ashes in a place where they're not supposed to (forests not meant for that etc.), and are not aware that here they put a little coin with the deceased's name in. So they don't realize that authorities can trace back who is illegally scattering ashes, haha. Seems like a bit of an awkward situation.
That's so interesting! Seems like a lot of trouble to go to to trace someone who scattered in the wrong place but clever, just the same 🙂
My fav duo, Love you guys, So informative and helpful, even on embarrassing topics, Well done ladies. Look forward to the next one x
Thanks Sharon, that's a lovely thing to say ❣️
Once again, a wonderful chat about the funeral industry and putting these myths to rest, pardon the pun LOL....Congratulations to you both for keeping the channel so interesting and educational!
Thank you so much 💚💚
I know I'm late to this page, but thank you so much for these informative videos. I've lost many relatives, a few in unexpected passings and this has made me less scared about the process.
You are so welcome! Make the channel worth while when we hear this ❤️
Sorry to hear of your losses 😔 please take good care ❤️
My daughter is a certified crematorium operator. I can also confirm that one only gets their own loved one’s cremains back. They are VERY careful not to combine or confuse cremains. ❤
HOWEVER, when she gets the bodies back from the Medical Examiners (they do the autopsies here in the USA), the bodies are never sewn back up. She gets them with the “y” incision open, and all the organs in a biohazard bag in the torso. This is so if the body needs to be embalmed, the bag is easily removed for this purpose.
Thank you for sharing your information 🙏 🤗💚💚
You ladies are so well versed on your profession. You make the most interesting and funny videos. You both are wonderful
Thank you so much Neil your to kind 💚💚
Another lovely video!
Thanks so much for the mythbusting!
Hi Coffeecat, thank you 😊 💚💚
Very informative as usual. Both of you are awesome .👏☺️
Thank you Suzi 💚💚
I'm a young person from the USA who is considering this career path-- how many years of schooling did it take to be a mortician? Love your videos by the way, your accents remind me so much of my grandmother (she's from Sydney). Thanks!
Hi StormFlight56, not to sure but I think in the USA Mortuary School of studies is 2 to 4 years. It is totally different in the USA compared to here in Australia. It's on the job training for a mortuary tech about 1year then you can go onto study Embalming this is a 2 to 4 year course also. Good luck it is a very rewarding job but it's also long hours and difficult work somedays. Say hi to your grandmother in Sydney from us both ☺️💚💚
You ladies are amazing .Your videos are so informative.
Thank you so much! So kind of you 😊💚💚
I love the set up of your mortuary the body lift overhead the hydraulic table everything is compact & modern
Thank you 😊 yes I love it too.
Before I worked here in the small family business I was with a big corporate company and I was forever fighting for safer and more modern equipment. My boss here is wonderful (as he's also a Mortician so know the importance of good safe equipment,) always has the best interest of his staff and families we care for 💙
Thank you ladies so much for doing my suggestion feeling blessed xx
You are welcome! It was a great suggestion, thank you! 💜
Thank you,,lots to learn.Love you both.I live in Novia Scotia,,Canada.
Hello from sunny Brisbane xx 💚
Wonderful brilliantly explained again.. ❤
Thank you James 💚💚
U girls are always professional and entertaining. Do u listen to music whilst working in the mortuary... wot would your soundtrack be... ole mate needs a stiff drink. Lol. Peace n luv 2 everyone, from the land down under x
Thank you Jason, I do listen to music playing in the background sometimes. I like your suggestion 😉🙃 😆 take care 💚💚
Good day beautiful ladies. Have a wonderful week. Morticians arent paid nearly enough for some the things they have to do to prepare a body .
Hi George I agree 😉 thank you and have a wonderful week too 😚💚💚
Trudat
I love you ladies, I love your personality Tracy!
Thank you so much Rama 🙏😚💚💚
Mr Bones looks really cool.. 😆 Great content thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks! Cal is kinda cool, 💜
Ladies not sure if it's been asked but I am an organ donor what happens to my body and how does it return back to funeral home as I'm hoping to have an open casket. Your show is great, if only we could spend a day in a funeral home.
Hi, what a wonderful gift to give💞 you will come into the funeral home the same as you looked before donation the only difference been a small incisions on your torso area. Thank you for your question take care 😊💚
I went to a manufacturer of coffins and caskets but the making of the funeral furniture Was so strict each and every board had to be tested for cracks rot holes through a vibrating machine anything that was doggie went out to make wood pellets handles were checked for security coffins and caskets had to be balanced that their was not more weight on one side than the other it was fire safety all the coffins and caskets were quality assured that the bottom won't fall off the joinery was solid that the spray was done properly checked for exposed screws or nails the timber used was 3/4 inches thick whether plain coffin or high end the dyes on the machinery could not be changed because it cost down time on the line
I asked were their any difference between an oak coffin or casket I was told f*** all if you want better you will always get it but you will pay for it as it will become fully hand made by cabinet makers and the price comes with that some people will come in with their own timber their own tree etc often times the timber is not suitable or they see the price we do have to charge
coffins have to be of a size for especially city cemetery's as graves are just ear to ear crematorium have a certain size even for big bodies so measurements have to be accurate all timber especially for cremation have to be certified timber from sustainable Forrests it like everywhere else theirs more paper work than manual labour if a mistake was made with a coffin and the side or the bottom became lose your insurance would be hit bad with how I injured my back neck while carrying the coffin it be the manufacturers fault they told me a doggie undertaker tried to switch a coffin with a member of crematorium staff the staff members reported him as he said all cremations were filmed to avoid mistakes and timed he said we moved in took back all our stock refunded anything that was owed and we would not supply him anymore the risks were to high putting a second body in would have loosen the joinery the product could be stretched was not up to scratch and could be dangerous and unhygienic one coffin one body
they told us that furniture for taller bodies or more larger frame was not changed extra it was to make certain the body fitted proper and were guarded the company's quality and good name basically we do not risk cowboys if anything goes wrong it expensive to deal in composition cases
Wow Patrick, thanks for all the info.
Our busy times usually coincide with festive seasons Christmas & our big festival Crop Over etc
Hi Geriann. That will be your winter time, that's like here winter time is our busiest. 😊💚💚
GRRRRRR! Some day, I'm gonna be FIRST to one of these bloody uploads! 🤯🤣🤣🤣👍. Please could you tell us (you may have discussed this previously) if there are 'standard' sizes of coffin. With such a varied size, height, weight of people, how are the deceased 'fitted' to say, three sizes of coffin? Thank you, in advance, Ladies ❤❤❤
Hi Gaggy, one day... 🤔😊
Yes, our vid about three weeks ago called coffining the dead discusses this in detail. Yes there are standards, but these days we also use custom builds. 💜
Really great one! Thanks lovelies! ❤
Thank you Cyndy 💚💚
Hi tracey & Trish👋🏻 I have a couple questions
Does rigor remain if a person is embalmed or partially embalmed? I’m just wondering because when I went to see my mum at 7 & 8 days post-mortem she was so hard that I couldn’t move her hands and was unable to take her handprints, the funeral director said that she was partially embalmed but didn’t explain what partially embalming entailed and I’m still not really sure myself.
And this is different because its an animal but when my beloved cat passed away she went into rigor almost immediately and it shocked and unnerved me just how quick it occurred and she remained in full rigor until I buried her a week later (long story why I ended up having her for a week!) I was expecting the rigor to go after a few days but it didn’t, is that normal for an animal? She wasn’t kept in a freezer or anything
Perhaps you could ‘save’ these questions and answer in a future video?
Thankyou 💚
So sorry to hear about the loss of your mum 😔 sending you our deepest condolences. Not to sure what the funeral directors meant by that. Maybe they mean she had a TP this is a temporary preservation ( meaning a much lower % of Embalming) but because she felt so hard I don't think this was the case because it sounds like she had been embalmed with a very strong % given how she felt. Some different makes of Embalming fluid make the body feel very firm, I use a much softer product not all Embalmers like a softer fluid, I do as the body feels more natural. As for animals I really don't know anything about the death process of cats and dogs and why there feel hard for longer, sorry I am unavailable to give you an answer on that.
Thank you for your questions.
Please take good care 💚💚
@@Areyoudyingtoknow thankyou tracey 💚
My sister in law my brothers wife passed away from a brain tumor she had it for quite awhile and she didn’t we didn’t know . She drank a lot and was always drunk . Until one night while my brother was taking a shower she took the car and crashed it into their neighbors car she hit her forehead and refused to let them take her to the hospital . Her daughters were called and they made her go . At the hospital they did a cat scan and other tests that’s when they found she had a tumor the size of an orange . They removed what they could more tests showed that the cancer had been spreading too fast and far she passed away 4 months later in hospice at her daughter’s home . Now they donated the tumor to be studied science so my question is did they take the tumor right away after her death and then where do they send it.and what do they study and where what is it that they need to know? She was a beautiful kind soul I loved her and miss her very much. How can someone have such a large tumor and never even had pain. She was cremated and her ashes were scattered at the beach. WHEN WILL THEY FIND A CURE FOR ALL CANCERS
That's such a sad story. We don't know the details but it's usually a lab in a university or research foundation that does this kind of study. Maybe the funeral home who arranged the funeral might have more details or the doctor that cared for her end of life. We are sorry for your loss. 😔
I was constantly asked , Do you remove & melt down the " solid silver " crucifix , name plate & coffin handles ? Please confirm to subscribers that these items are usually plastic and handles can be quite sharp . Also crematoriums occasionally have educational , informative " open days advertised on thier web pages.
Will do 👍
Hi ladies. I commented about a month ago about my mom and trying to make and pay for arrangements ahead of time. My mom actually ended up passing away last Sunday from a mixture of Covid and Sepsis so I did not get a chance to pre pay for anything. I was very fortunate that her best friend stepped in to help me. Thank you very much for being so kind to me and giving me advice, I'm definitely going to be a life long subscriber.
Hi Elizabeth, we are so sorry for the loss of your mum so quickly we hope you are doing ok 🤗. Big hugs lovely, and thanks for your beautiful words. It means everything to us if this channel can ease people's burden just a little around death 💜😘
I think people watch to many horror movies. The breaking of or sawing off legs was a 'Tales From The Crypt episode'. A kid was dropped off at his Uncles Funeral home and his Uncle was dirt cheap he ordered cheap coffins from China or where ever and charge people full price he would saw off there feet or a bit of there lower legs to fit into the Chinese coffins use water instead if the proper chemicals to prepare the body even take the gold teeth out of the dead persons mouth.. And there has been reports on TH-cam as well of illegal practices at sketchy funeral homes.
Remember Tales From the Crypt scared me as a kid, but like you say mostly made up stuff. Thank you for sharing ☺️❤️
Afternoon ladies, would you help me with a couple of questions please! I’ve commented before of my mum passing recently. I managed to see her a week after her death in the hospital mortuary. She still looked like my mum just cold and was sleeping peacefully! I just wonder when I saw her would anything have been done to her mouth eyes or body? ( her skin colour was the same, her eyes were closed and so was her mouth)? Or are you only embalmed and eyes capped etc when you say goodbye in a chapel of rest? I hope my question makes sense! Adore both of you by the way! Xx
Hi Julie, we are so sorry you have lost your mum.💜 Thanks for reaching out.
The closing or eyes)mouth is part of a basic body prep and it's something I do for every single person (where possible) that comes through our funeral home regardless of if they have a viewing it not. Even if some funeral homes only did this to those who were being viewed, when you indicated you wanted to view your mum it would have triggered this treatment to be done.
So even though I can't speak for what other homes do, I would think she would have had a basic prep before viewing so yes, potentially just some cream and eye caps and maybe her mouth was closed. But if it worries you you can always go back to the home and ask to know exactly what was done.🌻
Take care, lovely xx
My husband had eye-caps because he donated. Even though there was no viewing except for the family, it was a courtesy.
Yes it is courtesy ❤️
Karl has got me laughing, him leaning like that behind you is like he's bombing your video. You know like photo bombing...LOL
He's always up to no good 🤪🤣💚💚
I LOVE you ladies!!!❤
Thank you so much 😚💚💚
Interesting video. Educational
Thank you for watching ☺️💚💚
what made you get into this field? im in school for it.
much love from the usa Michigan
Hi Samantha, thanks for interest. We have spoken about this in a few videos before. 🌻 My mum was killed suddenly and I was not able to view her and say my goodbyes. I struggled for 10 years to come to terms with her death. If I can help by making viewings available to others it may make their grief a little easier. 💜 Good luck with your studies. X
Does the State come in the funeral home to check if everything is done correctly? I am a Nurse and the state always came one a year to check on things. Also with the state inspectors watch you embalm the deceased ? Just curious!! 💙💕💙💕💀☠️
Hi, unfortunately the funeral industry here in Queensland Australia is unregulated 😞 anyone can set up a funeral home without any former knowledge in the industry or experience. Most genuine funeral home owners are and have been calling for the industry to be regulated, until then not many checks are done. The local council can come and inspect the building and all facilities inside and out to check in use of council laws and regulations. One day hopefully it will be fully regulated. Thanks for your question take care 💚💚
Do you try to relax muscles after regamoetus before or after the embalming fluid?
Have to do it before Embalming or the Embalming fluid would not flow freely throughout the body of we did release it. ❤️❤️
Hi
My daughter died after birth was buried 37 years ago can we ( hubby) have her exhumed and have her cremated? Is it expensive or is it even allowed?
So the thing I wanted to ask you about was the caskets being reused I know there are some places that have rental caskets if someone is being cremated and there is a cardboard insert that is placed into the rental casket that is made up to look like the interior of a normal casket but when that person is going for cremation they slide out that cardboard insert that the person is in and that's actually what they are cremated in. So you might not have rental caskets in your facility but there are definitely facilities that have rental caskets
Yes we have heard of these but I have never seen them or used them. I think it's a big thing in the USA so can't really commit on it. Thank you for your information take care 😊💚
I have a weird question and maybe stupid question but I have always wanted to know during rigor mortise do the bodies ever sit up?? I know it’s probably a stupid question I just always wondered if there was any truth to it
Hi know question is a stupid one and it's not weird to ask. But no, bodies don't sit up even with strong rigor mortis. However as rigor mortis in a chemical reaction in the muscles and sometimes the shoulders of the body are curled slightly forward so the back of the body is not lying completely flat.
Thank you for your question take care 😊💚
In the us we can buy what's called a rental casket the lining inside can't be reused
Thank you for your information ☺️💚
How do you request a autopsy not done.where i just go to cremation and body left alone?
You will only need an autopsy if there is suspicion around the way you died (in Australia that's how it works).. and in that case it's a legal requirement so you can't choose not to have one. Everything else you just tell your family or prepay the funeral home and tell them. We have people all the time who are no service, direct cremation ..just make sure your wishes are known xx thanks for the question 💚
Hi Ladies. Hope you're well. I've got a great question for you. I've been connected with the funeral business some years back and the worst case, legally speaking, we've had was the dreaded tissue gas. Have you dealt with it before? Have a great day.... Dana(Mr.).
Hi Mr Dana, yes I have dealt with many many case of tissue gas as mortician/Embalmers nightmare. Theses case need care ASAP before it's spreads further through the body and on to other bodies in the cold room. Thanks for your question take care 😊💚
How do you cope with the smell of those intestines? Or even the sight of it
Some days are worse than others. But I focus on the fact that someone has to do this job to care for theses people so families can have that last good bye 💚💚
Very interesting video
Thanks fir watching James👍
I've been looking to get it done
💚 it's good to do the research.
Without been disrespectful in anyway, do you want to comment on the Queen’s funeral ? She wasn’t buried for ten days after her death? Her coffin was huge, for such a little lady! Her coffin was lead lined ….thoughts……? Thanks T&T.♥️
Hi Chief, we didn't think it was right to do a video as we do not have all the facts I don't want to speculate on things. The queen would have been embalmed in Balmoral where she died, the Royal family have a funeral company in London that's has taken care of them for many many years. The reason she would be embalmed is because she is placed in a vault and when placed in vaults all coffins are lined usually with metal lines not lead it's to heavy and expensive. Thank you for your suggestion. Take good care 😊💚💚
Question ??
How do I get to be a mortuary tech at John tong ?
Hi Peter, most of the time the JTC look for people with a science degree or in the process of one. Keep an eye on there recruitment sometime no science techs are needed but you won't work with the bodies mainly cleaning and admin. Good luck 😃
@@Areyoudyingtoknow paramedical science does that count ?
I am not sure. You could always go on there website to find out what's needed 😊
Your videos are so interesting. I don’t know your name ladies but the mortician lady… where are you from? You sound like you’re from Newcastle, UK. I am too😂 but are you based in Australia?
I searched mortuary videos as I lost my sister in law to suicide on Sept 15th and I viewed her body today. It was extremely difficult and I can’t get the image out my head😢
Hi Meredith, we are so sorry for your loss. We hope you can find some peace after losing someone so close.😢 My name is Tracy and I'm from County Durham in the north of England but I've been in Australia for more than 10 years now. We are based in Brisbane, Australia.
Thanks for your interest. Please take care xx🥰😘
@@Areyoudyingtoknow Thankyou so much for your kind words, Tracy. Oh wow that’s a small world. I’m from Whitley Bay and started my training to become a paramedic. However, after seeing my sister in law at the chapel of rest, I feel I’m not strong enough. Although, I know it’s always different when you have that emotional attachment.
Thankyou for your videos. They’re so informative and kept very light which is nice. There shouldn’t be such a stigma around death xxx
Oh Meredith, you should still keep up your training. Such a special job to be taken care off people 💚 it is very different when it's not your own family members, this is how I cope everyday. I tell myself this is not my grieve it does not belong to me, but I know that doing my job will help the family through their own grieve journey 🌹
It's a very small world I am from Stanley Co Durham not to far from you, take good care and look after yourself 💚💚
@@Areyoudyingtoknow Thankyou so so much. I’m determined to carry on Tracy. Thankyou for your words of support❤️

My brother was cremated but had a showing in a coffin....was the coffin he was in cremated also or did the funeral director's place him into a cardboard coffin? I never knew.
Oh Nancy we are so sorry your loss - your brother
He would have been cremated in the coffin you saw him in. That vid we just did with the cardboard coffin..we only used it as an example for the filming..it's not what they use in every case, only for people who have chosen cardboard for their loved ones. I hope this puts you at peace xx
Hi Nancy, typically the casket people are viewed in is the one they are cremated in, although there are rental caskets available where the interior is removed and the “shell” is reused.
EXCELLENT VIDEO
Thank you 😊💚💚
@@Areyoudyingtoknow YOU'RE WELCOME .
Does it hurt to be embalmed?
People don't feel it - they are dead when it happens. But if you were embalmed while alive yes, we suspect it would hurt, because it would kill you pumping the blood out and chemicals in. 🤔 Thanks for your question 💚
I love you both...so professional..I want you to be my best friends❤❤
Oh Nancy, that's so sweet..we would love that..can be your LDBFFs (long distance) ...I reckon you ate right tho..youre a bit 'zany' like we are.🤣🤣
Until the power goes out in a storm 😂😂😂
😬🥺
You don't have a rent a box? The Funeral Home my Mum used to work at did...for same day viewing and then cremation..you go out to be viewed in a nice coffin,with a removable insert..You and the Insert then go into a Cardboard Box and are cremated..
Coffin goes back with a new Insert for the next renter.
Thank you for you information. We don't do that here in Queensland Australia. The coffin or casket the family want is the one the person stays in to be buried or cremated. Take care 💚
Possibly natural purification.
🤔
dear you tube, why was my comment and question removed? it was a lovely story and an honest intriguing question!

I’ve seen videos on body prep and saw tiny stitches in the mouth
Yes - check out our 'basic body prep' video. One of the first ones we did. 💚
Undertaker relation of my says you can never use a coffin twice
as once a coffin come from one direction of the country to his funeral home the father did not like the coffin the body came in and wanted a catholic one with last supper handles he payed up for both coffins and we placed the cheaper chipboard one in the cleaning room as the coffin supplier said he can take it away and they had a place in the factory to destroy cracked timber and various broken coffins as you understand you do not want to put it into the regular land fill bin and set long stories going around
but the body was frozen for the journey and melted slightly their was about two teaspoons of water liquid but two days later the smell was high we took the coffin to the farm as a smell around the home would set more stores off
We set fire to the coffin it burned up very quickly in ten minutes it was gone with out a trace so definitely no it cannot be reused
Cutting the legs arms no it hard enough to deal with that after a traffic accident than to do it on purpose the risk of leakages is to high when someone body is shattered you do your very best to give the family a viewing but leaks dampness on the clothing leaking from the bottom of the coffin even if you put duble sheeting the inside of a coffin nothing is guaranteed an old embalmer once said we do our very best but can guarantee nothing
And cremation no to two bodies except twin babies or mother and baby these are rare thank God but only done at family request he said that pilling body's in a crematorium won't work
A no room
B to many bodies in the tort could cause a fire and cause up to quater of million in damage as these mecheans are very expensive and need rebricking ever year depending on use it happened in the USA once but the it was not a human cremation oven they were using it was an animal waste crematorium they used
And the storage of coffins have to be stored in dry area as they are made of wood and the American metal ones they are expensive stock and any blemish or damage or if timber is in a damp are And swells or warped well you cannot do a deal on your secondary soiled section and if you you have a coffin with the slightly of scratch that a owl would not see as certain as your bum is facing the ground it will be found
We appreciate your take on these myths. Thanks for sharing.
Kenton Ross funerals use super glue on the eyes , if twins die, they super glue holding hands together, and all mouths are sutured?, my ex husband used to work for them.
Work in different funeral homes tents to differ in something. Thanks for your 💚
I find this Internet channel weirdly intrigued an transfixed to this..
Hi Michelle, thank you glad you enjoy the channel 💚💚
You glue the eyes together?? Really ??? Why??
Hi Donna, I don't glue eyes together because it look to unnatural I use clear contact lenses that hold them closed. However other mortician will glue eyes, it's a process that's happened for many years to keep the eyes closed, every mortician has there own preferences when preparing a body. Thank you for your question take care 💚
Okay how about the stories about funeral directors having sex with bodies or people paying to do that. Sam Kinison was a comedian and he told a true story how these gay men would pay the Funeral directors or even the hospital morgues $$ to come in and have there way with the most fresh dead corpses. Not all places are legit and there are a lot of sick people out there that do way worse but what kind of twisted mind would want to make it with a corpse YUK!! it's a disturbed world out there. These things happen stories don't come from nowhere maybe embellished a bit. But the States, Europe is a warped place.
Unfortunately there are some awful people in the world doing the wrong things 😞

Hi, no not at all. Here in Queensland Australia we don't do many embalm. 90% of our preparation are un-embalmed
Thank you for your question take care 😊💚
As a matter of fact I see why a lot of people voted for Joe Biden as president. Now it's all making sense. 81 million votes my friends😂
Do you guys see or feel ghosts in the funeral homes?
No not in the mortuary. ❤️
let me tell you about my story related to the eyes when I was little and when I was next to my grandmother's corpse for the last goodbye one and the eye was open and I thought she was waking up but I was not wrong because of baldness it is because of this🥲
Oh thank you for sharing 💚
