Mortuary Musings

A mortician with two decades of experience offering insights and musing from my time in the death care industry. All names have been changed to protect privacy.

Everything you wanted to know about death, funerals, or the funeral industry but was afraid to ask! Ask me anything. #Funeral #Mortician #Death

Hot take: he never explained the ending because it was a stupid movie that made no sense!

[Emir Han @RealEmirHan]

Christopher Nolan always refused to explain the ending of Interstellar (2014). Some fans believed Cooper never reunited with his daughter and it was imaginary. Nolan said

“You have to see it yourself. It's there. I know what I think but it’s no more valid than yours.”

Happy Father’s Day to all those glorious dads out there.

😂 Might have to see if we can add that as an option!

@interesting_aIl AI can’t pick up and embalm dead bodies! #JobSecurity

Many businesses offer discounts for first responders, and they totally deserve it. But how come nobody recognizes the last responders! Thank your local mortician! #Thanks

@Monica55dzrh I feel like there should be an option at 5.5

I love Jeremy Clarkson. Hoping for a good outcome with his treatments.

The most interesting thing about this post is the Virginia state seal!

@FiredUpCoug My son has done good mowing lawns. He hasn’t even actively looked for mowing jobs but as he’s doing one he gets approached by a neighbor asking him to do theirs. He has more work than he wants!

Why are there so many stairs? Why do they make a tight 90 degree turn halfway through? Sure this curved stairway looks cool, but have you ever tried to carry 200 lbs on a cot backwards down curved stairs?!? House calls are always an adventure.

[Mortuary Musings @MortuaryMusings]

I bet you've never noticed the stairs in a home as much as a mortician that is in a home to pick up a body and the family says "Oh, she is in the basement"!

Then you make the long walk down the stairs praying that the person is a little old lady of 110 lbs.

[Mortuary Musings @MortuaryMusings]

@FiredUpCoug Dude, there is plenty of time to go get snacks. Anytime you want a snack you won’t miss any action!

[Mortuary Musings @MortuaryMusings]

Now you’re talking my language!

[Kelly🇦🇺🇭🇺 @kelly_ques]

Do you find death to be a fascinating topic to talk about?

[Mortuary Musings @MortuaryMusings]

@FiredUpCoug Have you ever been hired to do a funeral photoshoot? Most families just take pictures on their phones at the graveside. Sometime I get asked to take the pictures! But I have had a handful of families that hire a photographer to be there.

[Mortuary Musings @MortuaryMusings]

Was talking to a funeral director in another state today regarding shipping a deceased individual to their state for burial. Quickly realized this director had no clue what they were doing. Have you ever talked to a “professional” and realized they’re an idiot? #Frustrating
