A Tour of a Modern Crematory by a Mortician

[@peterredfern1174]

My wife and I are being cremated so it’s nice to know what the process will be when our time comes.Thanks Kari ,safe travels,Takecare from ballarat in Oz,👋🙏🙏👏👏🇦🇺

[@gewells8098]

I really love the concept here! Their facility is so inviting and comfortable with warm touches, very much unlike traditional funeral homes. I like the idea of being able to see a loved one through the entire process this way. I would think a person’s sense of closure would be so much easier to attain by actually witnessing or just being there with the family. Great video as usual Kari!

[@christettec3045]

I agree!

Took over a crematorium my home’s 4th. There were 5 torts that needed to be completely updated. Took about a year.

[@danielarangel3540]

we also have a live screen of our heat stacks at our crematory in Long beach as well. so many things in common with pet and human cremation. so much compassion goes into caring for loved ones, each one meaningful and different

[@nomadman1196]

Yep, cremation is the way to go. So cheap and easy to do. Dad got cremated a few years ago and we just put him up on a closet shelf in the nice little box they gave us. 👍

[@KaritheMortician]

Thank you

[@debbiekatsanos6836]

Wow! I'm very impressed. I've seen some videos online that were downright scary and the people running the retorts were very disrespectful. Daisy Hill, hmmm if I remember correctly, I think that is the name of the place where Charlie Brown got Snoopy. The Daisy Hill Puppy Farm. Thanks for the tour! It was impressive and informative! Merry Christmas!

[@canukus]

You are correct; Snoopy was born at Daisy Hill Puppy Farm.

This is similar to the crematory I worked at in VA. It was a super small facility with only two retorts and one of them was so old the doors were hand operated. It, and our partnering funeral home are all getting upgrades next spring.

[@KaritheMortician]

very nice

I toured the cremation area where my pets are cremated but this is so interesting. Thank you. The one I toured was definitely more industrial where the machinery is though they kept a beautiful lobby and sitting area :)

Those auto loaders are amazing. The funeral home I worked at they had a cart with rollers on it and then cardboard tubes to roll it into the retort.

[@squalli1297]

It's good to see FH's are changing to the needs of families. In the 70's, cremations were unheard of & comprised of approx. 20% of dispositions in the U.S., but was more popular in coastal states, particularly on the West Coast. With cremation embraced by most religions, there will be more service options provided with several price points.

[@KaritheMortician]

Yes!

[@janehollifield4484]

Thanks for sharing this video ! I’m glad to see cremation in a more gentle dignified way . At times , family members feel like they have to go every step of the way to the very end with their loved one . I’m glad to see those that who choose this can be there until the very last step and be comfortable , be reassured their loved one is in the best care and being treated with dignity . The older crematories seem barbaric in some people’s minds making the process that much more difficult to bare . Once again thank you and thank you Steve for this video !

[@elliotdryden7560]

Funeral homes invest a lot of money installing these systems. When Mom passed in '12 I was able to be there for the entire process ( here in SC ) until her remains were placed in the retort. the home spent over $600K earlier in 2012 on their upgraded system that is nearly identical to what you showed here ( that amount was verified indirectly for me later by someone I know who was involved in the install). The performance of that thing is amazing. It is designed to eliminate (as far as possible with the best engineering) co-mingling of cremains. I was HUGELY impressed and satisfied with everything. I know Mom would have been as well. 😌

[@549BR]

I think co-mingling is a misdemeanor.

[@KaritheMortician]

[@elizabethgrogan8553]

A bright, welcoming environment is so important. There used to be a moment when the coffin just disappeared behind curtains. I felt that was cold. I'm used to family funerals when the coffin is lowered into grave. Somehow, I found that comforting. It's nice that family can accompany the coffin to the crematorium, although I wouldn't want to watch the burning of the body.

[@KaritheMortician]

Yes it is!

[@conniebaker1958]

Cremulator truly sounds better then pulverizer, over heard it called that. Also over time the cremation remains change. Example when you first pick up your loved one and you take a peek at the cremated remains you may see the bones are really white and bigger pieces. The yrs later you look again the bones are a lot more fine

My sister and I participated in my dad's cremation. It really helped us process our grief in a way we didn't when our mom passed a year earlier as my dad made all of the arrangements. The funeral home went over and above for us. My dad as a minister and had done many services there. I am hoping for an outdoor cremation in Crestone, CO for myself. It's so nice to live in CO where such a cremation is possible.

When I build my new custom home I’m planning on having a retort built into the garage. My reasoning is I would like to die and be cremated without leaving home.

Is there any possibility to do an updated video on the aquamation process? I plan on even having my pets cremated via aquamation. Thank you both for taking the time to explain the process and making it a lot less difficult to sleep knowing our family member is treated with respect.

First of all, I feel that you, Kari, could complete this whole video by yourself. Next, I've seen videos, where the whole process is much more lavish. The cremation is done with colorful curtains and drapes. The family gets to see the body being inserted in the cremator. A very family affair. And what about Aqua cremation. It seems so much better, mentally. One way, the body gets burned up. The other way, the body is in a water and a biodegradable solution. It's nice to see that the process of making death, final for the family and friends. The process of decomposition is speed up quicker. Thanks for the video.

[@lrmgrl]

That is an exquisite facility. Do they do "ID views" there for families and I wonder if families are allowed to bring in members of clergy at the time of cremation for a "service"? Last thing I wonder is if this facility also doubles as a direct disposer or if that's even a thing in Michigan? Great video! Merry Christmas 🎅

[@KaritheMortician]

Yes they can do all of that. What do you mean by that?

[@stevenkeckeissen2369]

Thank you, Yes, we do ID views in our witnessing room. This is another reason that we have a shade on the witness window. This allows immediate family only to verify the identity of their loved one prior to cremation. They may also view the identification tag so they know their permanent cremation number that is cremated with the body and used later to identify the cremated remains. In Michigan, crematories cannot be direct depositors. The deceased individual must go through a licensed funeral home prior to cremation to fill out cremation authorization paperwork. Several forms including a cremation authorization signed by the family and a cremation permit and a death certificate must be signed my a doctor or medical examiner and the funeral director before cremation takes place.

[@lrmgrl]

@@KaritheMortician was wondering if Michigan had direct disposers. In Florida you can use a direct disposer for direct cremation and it's substantially less money than going into a funeral home for direct cremation.

[@jenniferfreytag7632]

@@lrmgrl I believe in michigan, you have to through a funeral home to have cremation done. The funeral home that daisy hill works with is beautiful and fairly new.

[@bouffant-girl]

Direct cremation, as in cremation within a matter of hours or days, is not allowed anywhere in the United States of America! This is because an automatic coroner's/medical examiner's hold is automatic. This hold could range from days to weeks,possibly even months to give the coroner/medical examiner's office sufficient time to investigate the circumstances surrounding the individual's death. Only then, can cremation legally be performed!

Are there certain bones that will always need to be broken down after cremation or it depends on the person. Has there been an instance when the skull didn't break down during cremation?

[@stevenkeckeissen2369]

Good question. The cremation process reduces the body down to the bone structure. After the cremation process, some bones are recognizable but they are so brittle that they will break under even light pressure. Large bones such as leg and arm bones may still appear in shape. Cranial bones are often flat and dense and require a little more pressure to be reduced therefore after the cremated remains have cooled, they are placed in the processor or cremulator which has an apparatus that reduces these pieces to a sand/gravel/powder type of result. The apparatus is also designed to filter out any inorganic material such as small metals. The large metal implants are removed prior to processing because they are easier to see, yet some metals such as dental fillings are separated in the processor.

[@KaritheMortician]

Yes it usually remains in larger pieces

[@heidikatzer9363]

@@KaritheMortician thank you for responding. Have a great Christmas in the new house!

[@damienhollester1006]

An Idea! If the retort can be started via phone as stated in the video, then Skype could be used to hold services for those loved ones far away and they could use an online button to start the process. Given the new day issues with travel, it might be something to consider to expand services. Great job in presenting the death side of life.

[@KaritheMortician]

They would have to do something to create a one time use code for it but theoretically it could be done

[@stevenkeckeissen2369]

That is a good idea. As every family we serve is different, we are always exploring ways to allow families to be involved in the process and find comfort in knowing that the cremated remains that were given to them are indeed their loved family member.

[@danclark1348]

My father, 30yrs ago, thought creamation is the way to go because burying takes up so much land that has better uses. Both parents were creamated. One facility was moderate in comfort, but we didn't stay,the other, was a large room, a few seats, located in an industrial center. Not much pleasing. Arranged by a younger brother. Then he took off from work to take the remains without telling the rest of us. We all knew the final wishes he ignored. A place like this would be much better to ensure we all got a portion of the remains each, instead of both parents remains at his home.

[@countrytxrose]

After the body has come out of the Retort and it's is cool can the family then ask to get thier love one as is with everything that came out of the retort and nothing removed or pulverized ??? Or dose the metal have to be removed & pulverized?

[@KaritheMortician]

No, most states have laws against it unless it is for religious purposes

[@stevenkeckeissen2369]

Metal is usually removed unless the family signs a waiver for it to remain, if so, we do still remove the metals but separate them and place them in a different container to return the family. If the family requests that the cremated remains not be pulverized, it does depend on the State laws; if the State allows cremated remains to be released to a family unpulverized, they must sign a waiver and the cremated remains will be released as they were prior to pulverization. This is often requested for religious rights and ceremonies or for identification purposes.

[@amandacrawford4748]

Does the family get to keep anything that’s removed for cremation like false heart valves , artificial joints , pain pumps etc… ?

[@terrijones8127]

I think that is done during the autopsy

[@stevenkeckeissen2369]

If the family requests these items back, we have them sign a waiver that they understand they are requesting the inorganic material to be returned. This waiver protects both parties interest so they are not surprised to find these items when they receive the cremated remains. It also serves as a note to the crematory that the family requests the items. We of course must explain that it’s very possible that the cremation may eliminate parts of these items as a whole or partially. It all depends on what the material is made of. We find that these requests are often a comfort to a family as a form of identification.

[@stevenkeckeissen2369]

@@terrijones8127 that’s a good point. If an autopsy is performed, or anatomical donation takes place, these items may be removed then but not everyone goes through an autopsy though. Artificial joints or other metallic body apparatus are rarely removed during an autopsy.
