Gulp!:-(Yep.
Also, it's the third generation of family that runs the funeral home that your family uses.
Yeah....Gulp!:-(
My dad told me the story a few times when he spilled an actual fountain of ink on a nuns hobbit during nostalgic handwriting lessons, he ended up graduating from a public school.I recall in grade school one year a nun had a hankering for nostalgia I guess, and we were required to get fountain pens for handwriting class.
They had cartridges. No fountains. So why did they call them fountain pens? Teacher told me to stop asking questions.
And even without fountains, they caused a great mess and we were eventually told to stop bringing them to class.

My brother likes to attend funerals. Personally, I hope the next funeral I attend will be my own.Yeah....
When I was a kid, they had a room in the basement for family to take a break in.
The room was full of taxidermy.
I mean, 30-40 dead animals stuffed and displayed. I found it fascinating. Dad suggested that's how they practiced.
The other family funeral home we use is also in the 3rd or 4th generation of family. They are great! Really nice folks. Super helpful and we are grateful for their services and compassion.
However, they have a pink light over the casket. Dad said it reminded him of the meat counter.
I smile every time I go in there....
which is too often.
Seems the older I get, the more funerals I attend.
I have to ask, why does he like to attend funerals?My brother likes to attend funerals.
If a contractor copped an attitude like that towards me, I'd look for another contractor. Part of being in business is being available when it's convenient for your (potential) customers.
Where do you live that good Friday is considered a holiday?
He says the families appreciate it.I have to ask, why does he like to attend funerals?
