      What a tragic hindsight it will be.

    This was VERY nice! I wish all cemeteries took the care of our loved ones this seriously. I can also understand now after seeing this process how headstones can be replaced in the wrong areas as well as chipped or broken. If the movers/diggers are careless anything is possible. thanks for sharing this!!! I always wonder how /what the process was in digging a grave and refilling it with soil.

    • @ladym1910
      @ladym1910 Před rokem

      That fresh hump of dirt is just the same earth that was removed and put back over the coffin. Since it is no longer compacted, like it was when it was underground, it creates a hump. It needs six months to settle and become flat again. If some of the earth was removed and not placed back, when the earth would settle, it would leave a large hole and not be flat. A foundation for a gravestone or foot stone can then be placed above or below the perimeter of the coffin area. Those are the regulations which I was told in New York City.

  • @eddieramos6883
    @eddieramos6883 Před 3 lety +3

    At my Dad's burial , once the casket was placed in the what it would had been a "vault" and the soil was placed over it , only but the close family was still at the burial site , and suddenly an old lady showed up yelling that the grave site belonged to her !! Right away the cemetery employees checked out her allegations by examining records and indeed my Dad had been buried in the wrong place . My Dad had to be reburied in the right plot . It seems that someone had taken notice of the mistake and informed the rightfull owner , which was the right thing to do . This happened for real on 1983 in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷.

      I work at a cemetery. Here there are both sealed or basic vaults, just depends what the family wishes to purchase. An unsealed vault is about as good, there's just not quite as much protection against water. It often depends on the spot of burial.

    And this job is not as serene looking when it’s 95+ or -10 with frozen soil.

      Most of the time the remains are lowered in long after the mourners have left because it takes a bit of time to finish the burial process , the casket is put into the vault then both the vault and casket are lifted up so the lid can be placed on and sealed shut then the vault is then lowered into the grave which takes a few minutes to lower down.
      It's best that the mourners not be there cause the cemetery workers have to be able to do their work easily and as quickly as possible so that they can prepare for another burial.
