I have so much respect for this guy.

@schamblin45 4 года назад

Extreme respect to Mr. Smith! To be held in such high regard is nothing less than amazing. I loved doing it so I was happy being what I considered just average. You mentioned the 24/7 part of it and the late night death calls are the only thing I don't miss since retiring. Great video!

I am so into this - EXCITING ❤ I had a roommate who was in the funeral funeral business/ Enbalmer ! He moved to Texas, MISS HIM AND ALL HIS LATE NIGHT STORIES ❤ BOY OH BOY- THERE WAS SOME GOOD ONES!!

Oh what a wonderful video, well Kari, you know what I mean.😏 I look at a skilled embalmer/restorerater, (I hope I spelled that right🤔) as someone who is a skilled artist with a wonderful gift of compassion! 💝🌹 ...And yes, as someone who also lives in Michigan, we have a eastside & a westside. The thing is, since we're mostly surrounded by water, I like to say, if you live close to one of the great lakes, that one is a west coast person or a east coast person. Lol! 😅 Take care my dear, & may God bless you & yours.🤗💐

Thank you so much for interviewing Matt Smith! I absolutely love his podcasts. He is a very fascinating person with so many amazing stories. Kari, what would you consider to be the pros and cons of being a trade embalmer, from your experience? And how do manage to stay so thin with such a crazy schedule?

The warm and fuzzies are the best feeling in the world 🖤🖤🖤 I’ve been in the industry for 5 years now and it’s been a lot of hard work, sacrifice, and dedication to the vocation. I wouldn’t change it for the world. Thank you cards from the families are the best 🖤 Matt seems like such a nice guy! I would love to attend a seminar but I’m out of state.

Very interesting video Kari! Matt seems like a very likable guy with a great sense of humor. I’d love for him to embalm me someday, after I’m dead of course. You know, I’d also love to witness an embalming someday just to see what’s involved in it. Is that possible?

@ashleyw8526 4 года назад

Does the funeral home/directors shut down (for lack of a better word) when funerals are happening? Of course they are working with that funeral and family but do y’all take death calls or meet with other families while a funeral is happening?

@MissDollyDimples 4 года назад

I personally think that we should move away from embalming altogether. It’s terrible for the environment its archaic. I prefer to think of death as a natural process and decay is part of that. I can however see how certain processes can be useful, for example in order to positively identify a body after death.

@chicagomike 2 года назад

Let’s face it. Embalming is for profit. Open casket culture in the USA. I think no embalming is better. Dress and clean the body. Period.

@johnblaesel5493 2 года назад

@@chicagomike Supposedly Pope John Paul II was not embalmed when he was laid out for viewing. Don’t ask me how that was possible.
