Just a brief comment from an “experienced” (not old) funeral director: This great little story could be the one every one of has told or can tell of our first years in funeral service. I started at age 22, managing a small funeral home in a community that was nearly brand new to me. As recently as one year prior to starting, I had never even heard the name of that small town. I was scared, honored, proud, determined, etc. Now I’ve been here for 32 years! The town has changed, funeral service has changed, I’ve changed, the world has changed. Is it really different? I don’t think so, I am still scared, honored, proud, determined, etc. And the families I serve are still sad, mad, scared, stunned, and all of the other words for grieving. Is the experience of helping some in grief different in 2014 than it was in 1982, NO. All of us use the same pragmatic, “would do anything that will help the bereaved” attitude that has been used by caring people since humans first saw death. So what’s a “professional” funeral director? Lauren and all those who care are…
(ok so it wasn’t so brief)

Comments on: Yes, I’m the funeral director.
