My grandpa just brought me some of my grandmas ashes (in the most insane container). These don’t look like ashes to me… There is cotton on top of the white crystallized pieces. My family was already giving me a hard time about asking for them so I wouldn’t be surprised if they weren’t.
Bit random I know but still asking.
Felt a Bit morbid and was wondering what Title says really, since I've had a History of Cardio issues and quite frankly don't want to be laid to rest with my Heart still in Me.
Dunno whether it would be possible to have it removed and cremated separately while I'd be chilling in a Coffin.
Are Gen Xers the last generation to wear suits at funerals?
Seems like it’s become the exception these days.
I’m a licensed funeral director and considering furthering my education online. The obvious choice would be a bachelor’s in funeral service however it doesn’t seem like that would make a difference in my state. I’d love to do thanatology, I think I would enjoy that.
I have personal reasons for wanting to do online classes and I won’t lie, being able to temporarily stop student loans would be nice as well.
Which degrees would you recommend? Is there something that would go nicely with a funeral director background if I ever wanted to switch careers? Or even, maybe if I wanted to apply to be a teacher at the local mortuary school someday. I’ve also seen job postings for a manager position and though I’m a little early in my career for that I wonder if most funeral homes would like an additional degree?
Any advice and direction would be helpful
