Totally Chris, I think we’re all learning balance, especially this year. It’s not just FD’s either, it’s all of us!

I honestly kind of figured they are able to handle it all. It’d be nice to find a director that knows when to take breaks so they don’t burnout.

You hit every point correctly. Thank you for your commitment to funeral service as I have place my whole heart in it as well. I started out of high school and have now been open myself for 18 years. It is long, hard hours but I am grateful to have the ability to serve every family that place their trust in us. May God bless you and keep up the good work.

I am going to go to college, starting dual enrollment at Jefferson State Community College and i have asked many people for advice on how to cope, the best advice along with this blog was, have a life. with as much time that you’ll be spending with the dead, you need to spend time with the living every chance you get so you don’t burnout.

The only thing I would add is you can take care of yourself provided you work for a place that allows you to do so. I’ve found lots of people in this business don’t allow you to do that because they’re married to the job. If they are, they believe and demand that you should be too. I don’t think so.
