Introduction “Embalming is one of the richest jobs a man can have”-this is what other says to the funeral organizations, in the case that their services are never losing. Every second of a time many children are born, but every second of a time can be a man’s last breath and every man’s last breath can be a future to other. Nobody lives eternity. We will all face death. Why is it that there are funeral organizations? Because they are needed by every one of us. They are

    Before our tour to All Souls Mortuary & Cemetery, I envisioned this location to be a smaller, old fashion, catholic location without modern technology, but I was wrong. In reality, All Souls was beautiful, modern with a touch of vintage and it had a “homey” feeling, as well. Moreover, Steve Allen, the mortuary manager, was such a friendly, funny and knowledgeable individual with many years in the funeral profession. Fortunately, I was part of the group he guided and Mr. Allen brought up topics that are discussed during class, which made believe that he was up to date with current funeral trends. While showing us the visitation room with a decedent, Mr. Allen stood in front of the deceased so she can have her privacy, which was very ethical of him. Also, during the tour of the preparation room, the staff placed white sheets on top of all the decedents due to their belief of reverence for the dead. “The basic ethic for the funeral service profession can be referred to as reverence for the dead” (Klicker, p.9).…

    Funeral directors are caregivers and administrators. They make the arrangements for transportation of the body, complete all necessary paperwork, and implement the choices made by the family regarding the funeral and final disposition of the body. Funeral directors are listeners, advisors and supporters. They have experience assisting the bereaved in coping with death. Funeral directors are trained to answer questions about grief, recognize when a person is having difficulty coping, and recommend sources of professional help. Funeral directors also link survivors with support groups at the funeral home or in the community. While it is true that, just as in any profession, there are a few “bad apples” among…

    When looking at the Jones Funeral Home website, it is evident that personalization is the staple of a modern and desired funeral. Appealing to many different kinds of people, the website lays out various forms of caskets, urns and memorial jewelry. As well, it offers flower ordering services, aftercare support and the option to pre-plan ones own funeral. The epitome of personalization is the advent of preplanning, as “It will bring peace of mind to your loved ones, knowing arrangements are made to reflect your personal wishes.” The website features many pictures of family; when connected to the question “what is a good death?”, one can conclude the importance of a persons’ community with regards…

    The manager thoroughly went over proper procedures needed to prepare embalming and funerals. Among all the things that we newly learned from this visit, most interesting thing was how the embalming process works. They utilize special chemicals to look the deceased as natural as possible. I thought embalming was a very meaningful work since it is the last time that a family will physically see the deceased and it helps a family create last memories about the deceased.…

    Funerals are some of the most difficult activities for most individuals to experience, especially when they involve the death of a loved one. Over the years, there has grown a common and yet distinct American custom when it comes to how funerals are perceived and conducted (James 348). However, most Americans still hold unto the traditional funerals as opposed to modern ones. Unfortunately, the American funeral customs put a lot of more emphasis on some activities that turn out to be very costly. Worst of all, the economic burden that this traditions put on the bereaved families is even more detrimental.…

    The Embalming Process

    • 2464 Words
    • 10 Pages

    What will happen when you die? I don’t mean whether you continue to live in Heaven, Hell, or some other supernatural realm. I mean, do you actually know what will happen to your corpse during the embalming and funeral processes? This subject, as morbid as it may seem, is quite interesting if you look at it. Maybe you will think so after hearing what I have to say. Since the moment I began this speech, 37 people have died, just in Virginia. This means that funeral homes around the state and even in our local city are booming. Embalming, Cremation, and Funeral Services is an occupation that will never lose its demand, but it’s also a profession that gives people the chills when they think about it.…

    Today we had a field trip to cornerstone funeral home which was completely a new experience to me .I have never been in a funeral home before, learning about the different areas in it was interesting. I appreciated the Funeral director’s words and I liked the part when he said that he gave up 13 Christmases just for the sake of helping and supporting grieved families. This was really a point to be respected for, it reflected his high sense of care and commitment to such a really hard job which needs lots of sincerity and devotion .The two gentlemen who work as mortician in this funeral home drew my attention. I was thinking how could they do such a job in this young age were almost every day they have to see or encounter dead people and families grieving .I am saying this because from what we all probably know`1 people in this age tend to avoid talking or dealing with anything related to death . After the field trip was done my overall impression was divided between appreciation to the hard job everyone is doing in this funeral home and amazement. I was amazed when I was informed that some people spend fortunes on very expensive caskets they are not going to benefit from. I thought they could rather use this money to help people in need or give it to charity .I was also stunned to hear all about the cremation process. I have never heard of such a process in my entire life. I only know about the regular burial process and that the deceased returns to nature passively. It really surprised me and made me think twice about life, it has opened my eyes more to diversity and the different diverse aspects of life. In my personal opinion I believe that the body is absolutely a blessing, having every single part of it function is a blessing indeed. This body help us walk, talk, write, think...etc. Without it we couldn’t be what we are now and so by burning it after dying, I guess we are disrespecting and humiliating it .What do the ashes really represent? How many…

    Death and Grieving

    • 497 Words
    • 2 Pages

    There is an old saying that states “The day we are born is the same we start to die”. This statement bothered me for quite a while because no one wants to think about dying. Leaving this earth at an allotted time is inevitable. The passing of loved ones is never easy to deal with. Death, to many, conveys a fairly constant string of emotions. There is disbelief, anger, and the most devastating sorrow from the loss. Many times death could seem to be a sad and lonely path for the ones left behind. Each family confronts death and funerals in a different manner. Some families follow long held traditions, while others seem to have no such precedent to serve as a guide. With that said, the faster people realize death will come, the better prepared they will be. At first consideration, I thought that I would not be able to write this paper because of the emotional baggage I would have to tap into to provide the content. Over the past few years I have lost many people close to me. What I have learned from all the deaths I have endured is have money set aside for the funeral, embrace the grief, and have a predetermined plan.…

    When somebody dies, it's a shock. And once the shock wears off, there's the question of what to do next. Few of us are fully prepared to make funeral arrangements, unless we've had the dubious honor of doing it all before, and most of us don't even know the location of our local funeral home.…

    Sociologists and anthropologists note that death rituals such as wakes, funerals and burials are important ways of acknowledging that death has really occurred. This is necessary so people can move toward completing the grief process by coming to acceptance. According to the Batesville Casket Company, "The funeral is about mental health and healing."…
