I lived in Reading , where they lived, for 22 years. George had spins bifida and was significantly smaller. From what I understand all the services were private, so there may not be a lot of information available

Happy Mother's Day, Kari. I used to send cards out every yr., but ppl on my MD list have begun to die off. So I just send txts to those who are still living. Tmrw, I am going to dinner with my friend & her mother. Her mother knew me since I was 15. That's a long time, considering both her daughter & I are in our mid 60s. So I look forward to that. Usually, stay home on that day. My mom's bday is this month. 5/27. She would've been 105. Ppl live that long tdy. I wish she had.

My sweet Mother is 95. She will be 96 in October. I just had major surgery to remove a tumor in my neck. I was convinced I wasn’t going to make it, out of surgery. So on our way up to the hospital, I planned out my funeral, just in case! Obviously, I’m STILL HERE ❤️

Hey Kari so glad to be here listening and watching you! It's interesting to hear how you would work on conjoined twins,I have always been just curious about conjoined twins in general to learn why the were joined at birth? So you would have to do something a little different possibly depending on their situation. QQQQ!?Would you like to be able to service a family who has conjoined twins? !!!Hope you have a wonderfully Happy Mother's Day!!! Enjoy your Mother's Day with your daughters and your 👪! Love from AKRON, OHIO ❤❤😊😊

Lori and George are survived by their father and six siblings. Following their deaths, Lori and George were posthumously separated and both were buried in separate coffins, side by side, in the same plot at Zion United Church of Christ Cemetery at Perry Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. they would have been I think 63 in sept. One faced one way and other was turned other directions.

@patriciahenderson7887 3 месяца назад

@conniebaker1958 3 месяца назад

I seriously thought about this also with the sisters. Their cranial were joined so I thought hmmm were they separated and put in separate casket or put into a couch casket. If they were cremated how? Because width wise would they fit into a tort. I’ve got such a curious mind.

@terrijones8127 3 месяца назад

My sister just passed of terminal cancer and i noticed that her hands were wrapped in black plastic and she was wearing gloves that we didn't provide also her torso was wrapped in something and was cold when i held her hand i could move her thumb why is this?

@mikecrews9112 3 месяца назад

Funeral homes use plastic cover-alls because the body leaks after death (called purging I believe) maybe the funeral home messed up the hands and didn't want to show them? Or maybe there was some skin slip which happens sometimes too... Kari would know more I just been following her for a minute

My paternal grandmother was really, really scrunched over. After she died, we were not allowed to view her. We all knew why; combination of rest home neglect (we could only go on weekends/holidays, and our complaints went unaddressed) and her back had to be broken to get the lid closed.

@catherinerose1607 3 месяца назад

That’s so sad . I’m sorry .❤

@winterdame307 3 месяца назад

That is absolutely awful! No human being should be subjected to such vile treatment, especially in their twilight years. The thought of it makes me cringe! I would have held the nursing home accountable. My mother died in a nursing home. She broke her hip earlier.

@WickedWest512 3 месяца назад

Its so sad that people just throw our old into horrible nursing homes. If you know your family is being neglected, why would you leave someone there?. It is so heartbreaking

@Bennifm 3 месяца назад

@WickedWestParanormal - We did end up getting the state involved and moving her to another care center that specialized in dementia/alzheimers. She stayed there for about a year until she died, but they couldn't do anything for her back by that time. Sorry to hear about your mother, I too wish the nursing homes would screen their applicants better.

Post mortem could they just be separated?? Then provide death care to two bodies??

@jenbingham0914 3 месяца назад

We had a dog growing up that would chew my moms bras. Didnt matter clean or dirty, but only hers. Then I had a dog that destroyed everything (she ate the bottom half of our bathroom door, not chew up, actually ate it. Even after she outgrew the destructive phase she still liked shoes and underwear. We had to keep all of our shoes up until she was about 6 and really wasn't interested. But had to watch underwear all 13 years of her life. We kept them put up but every now and then a pair would get left in the bathroom after a shower and boy she was quick to get them.

I heard the remains were given back to the families when it happened and there had been separate funerals. There's supposed to be a memorial in Florida for them on the base location of the launch. I never went when I lived in Florida. Seeing it explode when I was in highschool traumatized me.

@darlenewillbrandt1628 3 месяца назад

It was 3 months before the capuale with the crew was recovered. They hit the ocean so hard the bodies inploded . Thier lives were honored at Arlington. Sally Ride and Kennedy baby are the.(Military can have a spouse) only signal nonmilitary bodies burried there. Everyone should make a trip to Arlington.

@pandoraredd739 3 месяца назад

Curious - you mentioned people of a larger size takes longer to cremate and more care because of the fat that liquifies. So if a larger person obviously has more fat, would there cremated remains be more along the lines of a person of normal weight?

@mikecrews9112 3 месяца назад

Nope, from what she told us, it just takes longer to cremate them but their weight will be the same because cremated remains are the polvarized bones

@KaritheMortician 3 месяца назад

The cremated remains are just bones so the fat quantity does not factor into the cremated remains
