      Jess Basta to embalm means to preserve a body after death and is not limited to filling a body full of fluid as people are familiar with in today’s time. Embalming and mummifying were indeed two separate processes; however, embalming is a step in the process of mummifying a body used by the ancient Egyptians as early as 400 B.C., which pre-dates the Civil War

      Yet many reported the Lincoln ghost is still in the whitehouse, that would be really freaky. As many tragically murdered who their ghost still frequent Earth are reported to not know they actually died. Thinking they are still around for a cause which sounds right on Lincoln being that he was devoted to end the civil war and it was a few days after his murder when the war declared to be over. I do believe the north was defeating the Confederates in the war yes but after I do not believe most of the Confederates fought to the true end that their aims was for, most John Wilkes Booth was the second hated man on both sides after Lincoln's murder and most Confederates hated booth joining the union on tips to track booth. But with the downfall of the Confederate leadership in the final days and Lincolns death immediantly following stopped the war in my view and Lincoln won this dark time in our history though he paid with his life, he had great support more than people know from the Confederates also. Rest in peace president Lincoln and thank you for being the best president the country has ever had✝️🛐🙏

      Call the home and ask for Myra Mains. It's a grave situation. The grave diggers have a lot of work----they're buried. The director has boxed a lot of people although he's not injured because the people are already laid out. The director has to re-hearse before his speech. The people never complain and take it lying down. Digging the grave could be a monumental task. The director has to urn people's respect.

    Remember that episode of South Park when Kenny died and was cremated? Cartman thought that the urn was a container for chocolate milk mix. He drank it in his milk, and got haunted by the ghost of Kenny.

    First time I've seen your site. The museum looks fascinating. I was a florist for 15 years and one of my great grand fathers was a funeral director in Jersey City, NJ. If I am ever able to get to Houston, this would be @ the top of my must see list. I've always found mortuary history very interesting. Great post.

    Okay Jacob, I have to ask, did the company actually give her the money back on the casket? I'm thinking after 20 years it be a pretty bogus claim, but you never know these days, right?! As always, LOVE the video, and thanks for 'bringing' our family along on your adventures!

    Whatta awesome treat to share with viewers. I never knew about this place. As sensitive as this matter can be, it's fascinating to humans, because one day we all will experience the same thing. It is the one-half of the inevitable; birth and death. This video is value and you provided people a look back👀at our history in the funeral industry in the America. *_Thank you._*

    For those curious @ 14:52, the Marlboros aren't for Robert they are for Eric Lawson whose funeral program is right next to his. Eric portrayed the Marlboro Man.
    Ironically he also played a parody of the Marlboro Man in an anti smoking campaign later in life. Unfortunately years of smoking caught up with him and he died of COPD.
