I'm a retired Funeral Director and Embalmer who started this blog in 2006 to document my transition from retail into Funeral Services. I'm not sure comments are working as of July 2026. If you have questions email me using the Email Me link below.

Caskets And More Caskets

Today we received an order of 10 caskets. We stacked them up in the garage. Next week we will be receiving 45 more. That's not a typo, that's forty-five more caskets. Where we will put them all, I have no idea. Anywhere they'll fit, I guess.

Work has really taken off. We've had five calls since last Wednesday, plus a ship-in, which makes 6. This afternoon, we got our seventh call for the past week, which gives us a total of about 9 for the whole month. This puts us somewhere around 231 calls or so for the year, which is quite busy for a small funeral home like ours. Rumor has it if we break 300 we'll get a nice bonus. I hope this is true; I could always use a bonus.

Welcome back. How's the school preparation coming along? How much longer do you have to work your job? I know you're looking forward to quitting.
