You weren't getting anyone in trouble, you were holding them accountable for their failures. Two totally different things. Keep up your diligence brother.

[@bodhisattva_1]

Couldn’t agree with you more. Hope you have a great day !!! Take care

[@mrskenscott9643]

Absolutely! Well said.

[@Weatheredstorms1]

That and I’m sure the families appreciate the support

[@janemacaulay9372]

What happened...you were talking about the murder, and it cut off and switched to a different story? I'm glad they cleaned it up, they shouldn't have to b told to do that!

[@Debbie-ik2dw]

They should take better care of the graves and mausoleums

[@staceeAB]

That failure was nasty and disrespectful to the deceased. You were right to call and post.

[@admiralsemmes6939]

Exactly! 💯

[@vf12497439]

These things happen at mausoleums. I know we want to believe every business and institution is perfect, but only as perfect as the individuals working there. I’m sure Lamont’s video helped speed up the process but I guarantee it wouldn’t have stayed like that too long. The caskets interred in mausoleum’s eventually rust or rot out the bottom. The fluids sealed inside leak out and that’s what we saw in the video. The vault is supposed to be angled back so fluids run away from the public viewing areas and is to run down a drain in the back of the vault. As the casket degrades and fails pieces can block the slope like a dam……. Sorry for the disgusting visual but now you know, this isn’t a bad cemetery. Just an embarrassing failure.

[@loretta_3843]

Yes, and people are charged quite large sums to have someone be placed in a cemetery. I couldn't believe how much my parents paid for a wall spot for when they both need it. It was over $15,000 AU each. I remember being told how places that were more convenient to approach and see (eye level, etc) are at a premium. I guess it makes sense because a business will put a price on what people will value, yet it really gives a nasty money grabbing impression. Then all the time, it's emphasised how much they care about those passed and their families. Can't help thinking it their bank accounts they really have a deep interest in! I understand it's a service and business, and that it is how some earn a living to take care of themselves and family. In that case, don't be so vocal about the care you feel. Just be professional and don't insult people's intelligence. (Can you tell I've made it clear I want the simplest service and items used along with the least expensive cremation?😅)

[@lisaobrien4898]

@@loretta_3843 My husband and I will be married 35 years next month. In our home, we have a shelving unit with glass doors that has the urns and pictures of all our pets who have died over the years. My husband and I also want cremation when we die. I told him if he goes first, I'll lovingly place his urn on the center shelf, nestled in between our pets, lol.

[@joannmetz4413]

I thought bodies were drained of all their fluids before burial? I don’t know why they would leave that nasty fluids on the ground because a child could have come with family to visit a loved one’s grave and it would’ve traumatized that child let alone the adults! Some one failed miserably in their job. I had a friend die of brain cancer back in the early 1990’s and I was told the grave thst is in the ground holds at least 4 caskets of people who can’t afford a plot of their own. That is freaky to me

[@BlueberryStinkFinger62]

You did the right thing Lamont by showing the previous video. The owners of that cemetery have a moral and financial obligation to keep those graves clean and sharp looking. No one wants to come and visit their love one's grave looking dirty and damaged

[@diane_alworth]

That failure was atrocious. What if that were your family member…

Yeah, most of us would understandably flip our lids, seeing that. It’s disturbing enough when we don’t even know the deceased!

[@Dakota-xi6cg]

I told my daughter to roll me to the nearest landfill when I pass. This cemetery stuff is a waste of money!

[@mariebelladonna437]

This. I tell my family to just dig a hole in the back yard, wrap me in a dirty sheet, and throw me in, lol. Seriously though, it IS a huge waste. Plus, I don't want to end up in some old, forgotten, crumbling mausoleum or overgrown cemetery. I've already told my loved ones, if anything happens to me, just cremate me and sprinkle me somewhere I'd be happy. That way I can be one with nature from the start, the way the Good Lord intended, and my family (husband) can use the money they would've spent on a casket, vault, burial plot etc., to take care of themselves (my son).

[@jylromain6439]

I signed up with a donation place. If they don't want me, I told my son to go as cheaply as possible. Fancy is a waste of money that's better spent on the living.

[@bowlingbill9633]

Told my kids I want cremating and my ashes scattering to the breeze, told them if they go against my wishes I will come back and haunt them, their reply was you haunt us in life so yep we will do what you want... love my kids 😅😅😅😅

I searched William Grey Shook and he was 12, self inflicted gunshot. He was taking MEDICATION for depression and was on a camping trip with body scouts and his grandfather was a chaperone. He was right near his scout mates and did it shortly after they pitched their tent. He swiped the gun from grandma n grandpa. Incredibly heartbreaking. Guys please even if your teen has depression please understand the risks that MEDICATION sometimes has and actually makes things worse. Suicidal ideation is a common side effect! Im so sorry little guy, for his family and the trauma his death caused to his scout mates and his grandparents and parents. He loved cats, played video games... he sounds just like my son. 😢😢😢

[@wendysmith8246]

Glad that they listened to you!!! And yes that was a good video

[@bluestar2253]

10:16 According to Las Vegas Review Journal, "Marlo Thomas, 42, stabbed to death in 1996 two employees at a restaurant where he had lost his job as a dishwasher, Carl Dixon, 23, of North Las Vegas and Matthew Gianakis, 21, of Las Vegas." Marlo Thomas was convicted in 1997 and given the death penalty for multiple felony offenses of robbing a restaurant and stabbing two employees to death. In 2021, his convictions and sentences were upheld on appeal. He was granted a new penalty hearing in a postconviction proceeding but was again sentenced to death for each murder. Those sentences were affirmed on appeal and upheld after a postconviction challenge. This appeal follows the denial of Thomas’ third postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus.

this isn’t a “casket failure “ i am a 35 year veteran mortician. This is a crypt failure and operational failure of the upkeep of the mausoleum.

@@holliecollier1523 That's nice and you are free to choose what you want. Word of advice though! You better have a funeral or viewing within a day or 2 after you die or you will smell pretty bad because the body gives off a gas called putrizine. Embalming preserves the body for viewing if a funeral and viewing cannot be scheduled until a week later. It puts the color back in the skin and helps the body look normal in addition to slowing down the process of decay and reducing odor. The color in the body looks better not gray or pale with the face sunken in. My mom appeared to look as if she was just sleeping. Her color was very nice. She looked even better than while she was alive and suffering with cancer. She looked so beautiful. That will be a lasting memory for us. However you want your remains to be cared for is up to you.
