SW Iowa | I've known a few over the years. Most have been some strange ducks in one sense or the other.
My Nephew was married to a gal that went to mortuary school. She was a mortician and funeral director. Fine. Everyone needs to make a living.
He worked in an office for John Deere Credit. Worked late one night and never came home. The morning shift came in and found him dead on the floor from a heart attack.
He was only 39 years old at the time of death.
His loving Wife embalmed her own Husband. Open viewing in a cardboard casket to cremated after the funeral. She had sticky notes and magic markers at the casket. All were encouraged
to write notes and stick them on the body or casket. One of his Brothers wrote "to the nicest azzhole I have ever known" Forget what I jotted down.
When the service was done, she took the casket and pushed it into the fire for cremation. Then we all were given bottle of bubbles. We all went outside, blew bubbles into the breeze to float away.
Strangest funeral I have ever attended.
Any other good stories? | |
