[@antoniasmith8390]

The opposite happened to me. Last week my dad died and he died at 47 his bday is actually been today. He died looking his age and the mortician somehow made him look older and wider in the face something was wrong with his nose too. It’s was a difficult experience

What a strong beautiful woman. I had a stillborn son, my family spent 24 hours w his body then the mortician took him. She had her baby mortuary in her home. It was such a lovely place we dropped off his clothing. She sang to him while she dressed him. Everything was done so kind and beautifully. Takes a special person.

@cerulean Konie...My Dad was making $150,000 a year before he retired. It's not about the money though. If I went into it, I'd make barely $40k a year. My Dad would do so many funerals a year at no charge or help people out anyway possible. He ran these funeral homes, but did right by the families. How can you overcharge someone when they are grieving? Most in the business HATE the financial aspect. I work in an ER & hate asking for copays! I grew up in the business. It's not as bad as you all think! Directors will work with you. My Dad did so many pro bono...he was pushed to retire.

I wanted to become a mortician since I was a teenager, but I ended up going into nursing instead (secondary to life events which would take too long to explain). After nursing for almost 20 years, I’m feeling so burned out and seriously considering a career change. I think it’s time for me to go back to school and follow my true calling!

You should be commended for your straight-forward yet sensitive look into the work you do, I have tried for years to get a mortician to be able to understand the basics of death. They are not used to or have the desire to see the reality of someone completely being committed to preserving the dignity and essence of their life and soul and how the body is the encapsulation of the entire history of a.

[@thaliasghost]

Don't psychoanalyze strangers. It's allowed to have a critical mind and opinions. You thinking somebody has to be miserable when they do means that you probably are incapable of critical thought. See what I did there. Her work revolves around death. That's the least place where you should be into outward appearance. We all leave the world the way we came. Naked. I don't want somebody who gets her self esteem from her clothes and make up to deal with my dead body, simple. She's not weird at all.

Same story as many here, my grandfather passed after a six year battle with the effects of a stroke, when he passed he looked very tragic, when we viewed him he looked like the granddaddy I saw when I was a child, my mom was in awe, it was her father. It ignited my interest in this career. I have the heart for it.

My mom passed away recently (not covid related) and as with the passing of any loved one, the grieving family and friends are overwhelmed with going through the emotions of their loss. I was so relieved that the funeral mortician/beautician took care of my beloved mom and best friend with dignity and the respect she well deserved. She looked stunning. My dearest mom looked elegant and lovely. A real Grace Kelly. Mom always looked so beautiful and her skin was impeccable. We were so grateful that they made mom's last makeover look like a sleeping beauty.

[@chrisunderwood1614]

A family friend recently took his life by gunshot. The family wanted to have a viewing and I was COMPLETELY against this, doing everything I could to explain that this is the last image in their minds they will have of him and it will not be pretty. They went ahead with the viewing and I could NOT believe how well the funeral home was able to make him look just fine. There was a small scar across one portion of his head, but that was it. They went into complete detail filling the missing bone and areas of his skull, adding fake hair that matched his, and making him completely presentable. In the end, I was very happy the family went ahead with the viewing. They received the closure they needed and I am at awe at the work these morticians do.

[@huhh6969]

I saw a similar case like this of Ronnie Mcnutt. Hope everyone is doing well in the family, it must be hard for everyone right now. RIP to your family friend and also, may his family be okay☮️☮️☮️

[@igorsmart8078]

I guess if that gunshot would've been from shotgun, filling missing bones unfurtunetly would be much, much more problematic. Anyway...from my perspectice it matters how person lived his life, not how pretty he is in a coffin on a funeral.

What really happens we when die? Eclesiastes 9:5,6,10 For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing at all, nor do they have any more reward, because all memory of them is forgotten. 6 Also, their love and their hate and their jealousy have already perished, and they no longer have any share in what is done under the sun.10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do with all your might, for there is no work nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom in the Grave, where you are going. Why do we die? Genesis 2:9,16,17 Adam and Eve eats the forbidden fruits.cause them to die.Romans 5:12..what is the hope for our dead loved ones? www.jw.org/en/library/books/bible-study/there-will-be-a-resurrection/ if you to know more please donwload our apps.jw library apps for free or visit our official website jw.org
