@@patriciarivas2638 That's a very good question I hope Kari sees. 🤔 I'm wondering if your wishes weren't granted because they were trying to cover up the your Mom and Dad so that onlookers couldn't see their "deceased bodies"? For some people, it might be traumatic to see. Hmm.

I am a care giver of the elderly in their last years. I view my job as caring for the patient but giving an ear or shoulder to the family as they deal with these very hard choices and feelings. I watch your videos to learn more so I can help them. Thank you for showing multiple sides. Also my grandma told me stories of how things were done in her day. She was a farmers wife in the mountains of Tennessee and when there was a death the females of the family would wash and dress the deceased while the men were out digging the burial site. It was all very hands on everything happened in the home. I almost wish things could go back to that personal view. It was just the way it was. This was in the early !900's.

Yes, you do need to do this regularly. Please! I have watched you both, Caitlin, I found you first...and thank you, because when my husband died on March 1st, 2021...I had somewhat of a clue. My husband died at home with me there with him...and I was blessed because though I didn't know he was dying, he sort of did...and his last act and words were to smile at me, say "I love you" with the sign language version of it also, put his arm down and he was gone...when I called 911 and told them he had had another stroke and passed, they sent the police and ambulance and checked and yes, he was gone (they dropped the EKG paper on the floor, I guess they missed it when they left...he was indeed flatlined and yes, I saved it.) But when the funeral people got there, I had enough where-with-all to tell them my desires and not be all falling apart. Which is a long-winded way to say to you both that you are helping demystify the whole process.

Refreshing video! When I worked in a CA FH in the late 70's, I needed to get written or telephonic permission from the NOK to embalm. Approx. 20% elected no embalming. Some wanted viewing without embalming. There have been improvements for embalmers since I left the business. More PPE's are being used in the prep room today-then we only had gloves & plastic aprons we were forced to recycle. OSHA now requires proper ventilation in prep rooms since so many FH employees were subjected to noxious fumes. You are the new generation of embalmers & FD's & can demand changes needed in your industry.

Both of you have lifted the veil exposing what happens in this secretive process. I’ve learned that the rituals are really meaningless. I want to be remembered as I was in life, not a pickled specimen in a box with a lid. Nothing really helps the mourning process but time and the acceptance of the void left by our loved one’s absence. I’ve had massive experience with death as a cop and criminal investigator. I’ve watched nearly 800 post mortem examinations and working the recovery at the AA Flight 191Chicago to Los Angeles crash that took 273 souls. Catlyn’s historical documentaries are fantastic. As a fellow video creator I know the work and skills involved. Thank you both for what you do!

Here on the west coast cremation and memorial services are more common than traditional funerals and burial. There is a definite trend towards green burial and other alternatives to embalming. My father was a mortician; he, my mother, stepmom and brother-in-law all chose to be cremated with simple or no service. It was instinctive for my daughter and me to bathe and dress my mom after she passed at home, and I agree family involvement in the process is important. For me, leaving the earth with the least possible harm to it is the priority, and I wish my body could be laid under a tree on my farm to nourish the ground and other animals.

I love this and all of your ideas seem great to me. My father passed away earlier this year and I had the confidence to tell the funeral director that we didn't want him to be embalmed. He had already made it known that he wanted to be cremated and he was very environmentally aware. I asked about the chemicals used in embalming and what happened to those during the cremation process. The advice I was given determined the decision that was made for my dad. Thank you so much for giving us the awareness to understand the choices we can have rather than just accepting a scripted list of 'here's what is going to happen' when it comes to the funeral process.

Very interested in hearing your great ideas! I grew up at a time and place in Brooklyn, NY, in an immigrant Italian neighborhood where the only variation in funerals was which of the two or three funeral parlors in the neighborhood would host the event. And I see that deliberately because it was three full days of waking, and the funeral on the 4th with floral arrangements filling the rooms and a constant flow of people through the room. Weddings were also cookie cutter at the time. Today there is so much personal invention in both weddings and funerals; it is quite a change from my youth and I think for the better. The thing that I think is missing today though is some sense that society give the recently bereaved some space. With no set mourning rituals, we are adrift. Earlier generations wore the signs of their mourning and were somewhat “out of time” during this period. Today we are back to normal as soon as possible and just driving grief underground where it makes us sick. Just my two cents ....

I agree Caitlin and Kari , with the costs for basic funerals/cremations. The government would probably means test it. Natural burials is a fantastic option. You are both visionaries for such a very important service you both offer at families' vulnerable and emotional time of their lives. Great to see both of you are such great advocates. Shame we see such horrible family rifts at the time of someone's death. I would like my wake be held with the coffin present. It is so sad to hear that Funeral Industry has the Age conflicts as it is in most of the other Industries. The dead wood in the industry needs to either step up and learn or get out. There is a place for the old and new. but mindsets need to be open to progress forward at the same time respecting the traditional. The educational stance you both promote is the best thing that could have happened about death, dying and the industry blocks or progression. Do people ever get buried at night? I have never seen that. Thank you both for doing this segment and I look forward to you both coming together and doing more of these.

YES! Caitlin! I’m on disability! So when my mom dies, I’m going to have to come up with money, immediately, until my brother gets into town! We have plots up in a cemetery 70 miles away! So I just need to find the casket and vault, and just get her up there! On and I talked about this just the other day. And so Monday, I’m going to call different funeral homes in the area to ask if I can come pick up price lists! Love the two of you!!

When my father-in-law passed, the lividity was so bad that we couldn't show him, the family didn't even view him, the funeral director was wonderful in informing us that 'ya know, closed casket, really don't need to embalm... saving you a lot of money...' The rule of thumb I always heard was if the body is crossing state lines &/or if there is going to be a public viewing, otherwise embalming really isn't needed.

OOOH! Caitlin! I’m so very interested in Death Doula’s! One or both of you, NEED to do a video about that! (Jodi Picoult’s latest novel, The Book of Two Ways, is about a woman who is a Death Doula, and also an archeologist. It’s fascinating! I hunk there should be MORE Death Doula’s! (And maybe there are and I just don’t know about it!

I totally agree that the government should do more to assist with funerals. It is about providing dignity to individuals and citizens of your country. We are people that pay taxes and help contribute to society. Much like education (and healthcare for many countries), it could be a government funded industry. This would provide a lot of options for everyone and if you are able to afford more (like private school) you can pay for extras.

Especially for those of us who are on Disability, due to medical reasons, and don’t get hardly ANYTHING from the government each month! I’m currently considered to be way under the poverty level, but I live with my mom, so at least I have a roof over my head. When she’s gone, I’m sunk!

Hello Kari 👋 it's been so interesting to hear you all talk..I have always been big on preservation and I always wish they would come up with something better than just formaldehyde so it would be safer to use and preserve the body for a very long time because everyone says that embalmbing only meant for a very short term preservation..
