Neptune Society’s Post

To celebrate National Funeral Director and Mortician Recognition Day, #OGR caught up with members to chat about why they are so passionate for #FuneralService. Today, we talked to Geri Oliverie from Oliverie Funeral Home in Manchester, New Jersey: What made you become a funeral director? The social aspect, the gathering is so important to me. We all weave a thread in others’ life quilts. It’s nice to see the completed quilt and pay your respects to a life well lived. What is your greatest reward for being a funeral director? Growing as a compassionate person and helping others. Being a part of something larger and more important than me. Giving my family an example to help others.

This might be contentious. it seems to be that this certain Funeral Director's on Hull could well alledgedly have been " forgetting" to actually cremate the " Direct" non service deceased mostly. offering a small in house ( possibly) service with the cremation to take place later and remains returned at some point in the future. The potential impact on what is becoming a growing portion of our industry could be catastrophic. Please, for the sake of the professional, caring Funeral Director's, Crematorium, cemeteries and the whole supply and support industries , professionsl associations behind it all, can we stop hiding what we do so much, work together to open doors and allow the people of the UK who will all need us at some point, see what we do, how well the good ones do it. involve Funerl Director's, the crems and cems, invite the suppliers to the open door open day, take away the fear and uncertainty that this has caused. it really is no good hiding waiting for it to go away, it won't. if my information is wrong I apologise, but also if this is what I'm hearing so are others, so if it's perceptions or facts. we need to strike at it now. my apologies for any upset or misinformation if applicable.

The Importance of Having End-of-Life Conversations Massey Bros Funeral Homes As someone who works in the funeral industry, I am constantly reminded of the importance of having open and honest conversations about our end-of-life wishes. It's a topic that many of us tend to avoid discussing, but it's crucial for ensuring that our loved ones know and can honour our final wishes. Just the other day, while having a casual chat at home, the question of whether I wanted to be cremated or buried came up unexpectedly. It made me realise how we had never discussed this important decision before, despite my profession. This same scenario plays out in countless families every day, leaving them with the difficult task of trying to guess what their loved one would have wanted. I urge everyone to take the time to have these conversations with their family members, especially when everyone is in a good space and the discussion can be had without creating an air of sadness. By having these discussions early on, you can ensure that your wishes are known and respected when the time comes. Let's break the taboo surrounding end-of-life conversations and start talking openly about our final wishes. It may not be an easy topic to broach, but it is one of the most important conversations you can have with your loved ones. Let's make sure that our wishes are heard and honoured when the time comes. #EndOfLifeConversations #FinalWishes #FuneralIndustry #FamilyDiscussions #OpenConversations #HonestCommunication #masseybros #honouringlife
