From Embalming being originated from Egyptians to mummify the body as a means of preservation (4000BC) to TODAY where a wide range of options are available for your loved ones. Even launching cremated remains into space to be dispersed amongst the Stars! 💫
With low staffing and increased workload it was no surprise this pandemic was very overwhelming and stressful. Let’s also clap and say THANK YOU to our last responders, Funeral Directors and Cemetery workers! 👏
Make sure to be physically or emotionally present for those going through a really tough time. Three things you can do when you cannot physically attend a funeral are:
1️⃣ Send Flowers to the Funeral Home
2️⃣ Send a Condolence Card
3️⃣ Be there for the family even after the funeral

A funeral doesn’t have to be all doom and gloom. Although there are times to be solemn, “humor is a powerful thing,” Cunningham says. “Getting at the beauty of the deceased by telling a story that’s sweet or brings a smile or laugh is a lovely thing to do.”
Whether children should go to funerals is a common but important concern of parents, and it depends less on your child's specific age and more on your child's maturity and your dialog with your child.
