So glad that he was able to brush his teeth before his journey ... but then the bubblegum must not have tasted quite as good. Life's (and Death's) little trade-offs. 🎲

When will this be in the UK , its a good idea and a better choice.

Always likes the cheesy blue velvet covering the casket lowering apparatus. Its a touch of your subconscious and makes it look more professional.

Oh, a Chevy Tra-Hearse!

My husband was born and raised in Antlers, which is about 30 miles north of Hugo. He knew of this cemetery and he brought me here in the late 1990s when we had gone up to visit his mom. It's an amazing place. Unique plaques and statues, and a real history of a bye gone era. There is also one up in Forest Park Illinois, Woodlawn Cemetery, where the Showman's Rest contains the graves of performers who were on a circus train that carried the Hagenbeck-Wallace circus in 1918. A troop train plowed into the stationary circus train, killing 86 of the 400 performers on the train. Most were unidentifiable due to the fire that started from the crash. If you are interested in that video, it's on Faces of the Forgotten CZcams channel under the title 1918 CIRCUS TRAIN-WRECK THAT KILLED 86 Performers & Roustabouts - Showmans Rest at Woodlawn Cemetery.

PS I agree about your mission, that we should prepare for the inevitable, it is the most loving thing the deceased can do for their family / the family can do for the deceased

Dear Gail, A Mass card is a card given to the family of the deceased to let them know that a Catholic (or other mourner) has arranged for / Requested a Catholic priest to offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the repose of the soul of the deceased. This life is not all there is. Hope that helps. PS What the Orthodox father described are the cards made up by the funeral parlor with sacred images and prayers to God for the deceased to be given to mourners to remind them to pray for the dead.

Should have been replaced long ago but good job!❤

What do prices start at? Do you have to provide the casket?

When it comes down to it, it's all for the living, the dead have gone their way.

If they weren't old I doubt anyone would've been kind the way they were

Thanks for sharing Gail ... I've bookmarked this for our next road trip!

How cool is this 😎 Thanks for your important healing work Gail Rubin 💜

A very good presentation....a lot of my questions were answered. Thank you

George's voice has really gotten frail over the past year or so, if anyone noticed. Something is going on. Hope he's doing well.

The round corners are better

IS THAT A BOEING DOOR?

Pretty cool hearse actually

How can you afford that kind of machine? Is the state subsidy apply? If it does that means tax payers are paying for some of the cost. If not, what is the cost of one of this machines? Obviously there are many other expenses associated with this type of equipment. What off sets the cost? How many Brodie to make it profitable? Not free!

Finally retired ours on our dock after 27 years. Possibly more.... Replacing it with a new HD series.

200 and 300 degrees is all? Wow. Wth would they want something that takes that much more time?

I’m getting turned into a diamond or diamonds for my kids but this would be a good second option

2:35 i own one of these :)

I remember standing in the foyer of the church as an eleven year old boy for my 19 year old brother's casket to be placed on the church truck. A very vivid memory as he died in an automobile accident and changed the course of life forever. I was fascinated by the sturdiness but smooth roll of the truck once the casket proceeded to roll down the aisle to the altar. Many friends and family in attendance. I felt two hands on my shoulders as the casket rolled by me. I looked up for my Dad but it was my Uncle Ted. Dad was somewhere, would be seen on weekends for a dozen years or so. The grief of losing his first born was too much to overcome and died at 59. Seems like yesterday.... I'm going on 63.

It's all about the stories!

How could someone attending NFDA not know what casket stops were??

Very interesting, thank you for educating us!

Nicely done.

The music sounds heavenly in the carousel 🎠

What is the price of Diamond? Do you have a website .

When I was a little boy my father and I were walking down the street past that cemetery and I saw a man clear as day normal looking expect he was missing his arms walking diagonal across the graves very fast and disrespectfully. He I'd never seen anyone like that and I yelled "dad look that man has no arms" and pointed at the man. My dad responded with anger "what the f@ck are you talking about" almost as if he couldn't see him. I was. Only 4

I sure do like this man...I work at a formal home..my son has one georgie...

👏👏👏👏👏🥰

Nothing like being buried in Tupperware, or a product that WON'T seal as well

LOL ......... MORE plastics to seep into the earth

C est tout ce que vous,s avez a lldmontrer😢

Gail, my mom passed away on Thursday, October 19th, 2023.

How do funerals work?. I mean, Why some have processions and graveside services?, while others have it at a Church?... Others are buried without people present, or probably one member just watching from a distance?... Just seeking info.

Are you able to locate lost items? I do have MANY family members that have passed that I'm also wanting to contact as well. I've seen 2 psychics before & I really was disappointed with the questions that were very general like is this a friend, relative, peer, sibbling, or lover. Kinda covers everything & then it was played off what I answered so I'm skeptical. I was also asked if I had a daughter which I don't and that threw me off too. I tried hard not to give too much away but they pushed with questions like that.

In the city they wait till everyone leaves but they don't do it in the country I wonder that myself

Wow, great information. Thank you, Gail!

i dont know why we dont use them lifts in the UK much easier

Back in the early 90's I didn't have a helper, had to do it all by myself. It was hard doing the children's burials

Why do they wait for everyone to leave then lower the casket.

With all of the horror stories about what happens to Loved Ones after years of The Casket being underground, and the Burial Vault isn't garenteed to Protect the Remains, I'm Getting Cremated!!

Very enlightening and inspirational ❤
