So sorry about your divorce. It's almost like losing someone by death. I pray God keeps you and spoils you with his great love. As I know you are a believer. God Bless Kari !!!
Kari...I admire the way you explain your talent...and to me it is a talent..I had been afraid of the whole dying thing before..but once I took care of my mother until she passed, and then my husband, who passed of pancreatic cancer at home (with the help of a wonderful hospice who showed me how to administer meds as needed) I am now a caregiver and learning to understand the dying process much better...you have taught me so much and you are very empathetic doing so...blessings to you..
I've had very positive experiences with funeral homes. My friend had the opposite experience with the same place. I think expectations and knowledge can make a huge difference.
You're doing a wonderful job educating the common folk about the mysteries surrounding the Preparation Room and what happens after people break their air addiction. Keep up the good work.
I know I was real good with my plants like I had a green Tumb them all of ones they all die someone told me plants can feel things about u is this true I till can’t keep a plant I gots a Beautiful Lily tree from my husband service I just kill it’s I try everything I wonder why it’s hurt me bad
Hi Kari I missed you live but enjoyed this session and last nights crime video. I always enjoy listening to you and have been praying for and sending you good vibes.
When we brought my uncle home on hospice the nurse showed us how to use his medications and left told us to call when he passed so they had his time of death but told us that we could choose when the funeral home was called.
So I have a question, sorry this might be long! How do you treat cremated remains! When I went and picked up my dad and grandmother! The urn was brought out and just placed at the counter up front and i just grabbed them up like a pizza and off I went! I didn’t think much of it being a guy and all! I was watching a video recently about a funeral home in Arizona that said they would take the person back into a small viewing room and give them the same respect as if it were a body to give the person a moment alone! I guess I never thought about they way they did me and how if it were a persons child or something difficult would be highly offensive!! Your thoughts!!
Have you seen how the people in samoa care for their department family members? They are buried in the front yard of the homes and when I was there, my tour guide told us of families who have dinner every night around the grave. We also saw a glass mausoleum where you could see the casket. Very interesting. Also thank you for your advice on volunteering in a home, I have contacted a few and have an opportunity once our lockdown is over. Hi from New Zealand 🇳🇿
I have lost several family members in the last ten years. All the way from twin 11mo old niece and nephew all the way to my mom at 64. I am 45yo. 42 year old brother in law as well as parents and my husband's parents all in there 50's. The worst was my daddy (died of cerosis of the liver). He was sent to the Dallas school of mortuary (they did an awesome job) however they warned me he could turn nasty colors. I was like ok. Then I realized yellow (jondice) and blue make green. Thank goodness he wasn't green. But I am greatful the funeral director warned us just in case. Sorry I know this was a long post but may help someone else down the road
I watch and comment on your videos. I also know, that you are a very special person. This world needs more people like you. I may have missed an answer to the following. With as many questions you answer, have you thought about publishing a book with the questions and answers to many of the ones you get? As times change, you could do another book, or have a supplement to the m as in book. I would think it would be a best seller. " Everything you wanted to know about the Funeral business, but were afraid to ask" by Kari.
Kari, I really enjoy your videos. You are so good at explaining things and it helped me so much when my MIL passed last January. She was cremated and my husband couldn’t believe that I knew so much about her cremation. I explained about the retort and he didn’t know what that was. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. On a different note, how are your girls doing through the divorce? Big hugs to you..
Hi Kari, it's Jill from Glasgow Scotland in the UK, when do you plan to visit the necropolis on wishart street in Glasgow as it would be lovely to meet you, I spoke to you a long time about it when you done the differences between the funerals in the UK and the United States, from Jill in Scotland x
@@KaritheMortician I understand. There was a show on HBO called Six Feet Under and one of the episodes showed a deceased that had piercings (below the belt if you know what I mean)
I've looked up reed basket-type caskets: they are PRICY, but not as expensive as wood or metal caskets. Kari, I know what you mean about housing prices; it seems homes here in San Diego are increasing in price by the hour! Good luck, and I hope you find your Dream Home.
@@KaritheMortician I am so sorry for yours and your family's loss. You are a beautiful, strong woman. Thank you for your videos and the job you do. Our world needs more dedicated people like you. God bless you always.
So I have a friend who just started a new job in a hospital in a cancer until she had a patient die and the nurse asked her to bag the body. The nurse had her tie the deceased arms and legs. She didn’t know why but she said it was for the funeral home? Is that common practice for the industry
With the vaults......I'm in Tennessee and there was a new grave being dug at a really really cemetery recently. I couldn't help but stop and look at the hole one evening. I could see the vault on the left side. They digger literally dug it out so close to have the other vault visible. It was crazy to me to see.
I don’t know how to join in the live chat? Would you please do a short instruction, I know you never know you schedule… How are we notified that the chat is about to happen…
You can turn on notifications but YT only sends them to so many people. I usually do Friday mornings but I have no set schedule because my work schedule is too erratic. I will try to post once in a while before going live
Can you give info on the process of getting death certificates signed, filing, & ordering certified copies in your area? It's a process many don't understand. I believe it's now done electronically nationwide & there's no more "paper pushing." Many don't understand the importance of certified copies after a death & the urgency to get one ASAP. You've talked about unusual causes of death on DC's. Don't know if you can do it in 2 minutes.
I just found you by someone talking about you on tiktok. And I am very interested. I have watched many of your videos since last night. I have wanted to be a mortician or work with a medical examiner. I really want to take the next step. I just don't know that step. Any advice?
@@KaritheMortician thank you. I will look into it. But I was watching a live of a girl that in an embalmer and someone in the comments asked her if she had ever watched your videos. So I came right over to RUclips. Lol. I really have learned a lot from watching your videos. My mom died in Feb and my dad in May. So it's still fresh. They were both cremated and I think it's interesting to know how it's done.
Meet and Greet in Lexington Louisville KY or Cincinnati, OH area!!! 😆 I'm in Maysville, KY but I don't know of any weirdos like me who are as fascinated with death and the human body - or willing to discuss funeral/mortician things!!!
I have an unrelated question. As it’s Memorial Day Weekend,I went to visit my GGrandfathers Resting place,& the Gates to the cemetery were closed. Is this legal.? It was Sat around 9:15am. Thank you.
@@KaritheMortician I didn’t see any,but a Saturday by 9:am and on this Memorial Day weekend seems as if they would have. All I found out in line is they close at 5pm. Open time posted.
Idk if there's a video on this subject. But say I want an above ground mausoleum at the last minute for my mom or I'm not paid in full for what I've ordered, what happens to the casket and deceased? I highly doubt a vault company would have pre-made mausoleums sitting around.
I’m disappointed I missed the live chat! On ashes and paranormal: I make glass beads for not a living, and when I make memorial beads with ashes, I “get” colors that they like. I’ve never personally known the pet or person, but sometimes feel something about them. That said, I’m fascinated but still open minded and little agnostic about my experience. When I’m creating I’m certain I’m picking up on something, though. Anyway, I’m glad you’re doing well. The house hunt must be brutal right now. Yeesh. Best of luck, and ke us informed! 🙏🏻
@@DibIrken Sure they reuse caskets . My husband and his sister had a service first , then they were cremated. They told us how much it would cost to rent the caskets. It's like renting a car or house . You use it , then when you are done with it , they rent it out to some other family. They even rent out clothes! My sister in laws dress was rented ! Sounds crazy but its true. She had nothing on being cremated, but her brother had on a Eagles football outfit on and was cremated in it . There are many things that are out there for the dead 💀
Hanging plants never survive. They are in lousy soil or base that doesn't hold moisture for the plant, the water runs right through. They will survive longer if you replant them in a good soil base.
I'm surprised that you would have a meet and greet in Minneapolis because of the rioting that took place there. I think people would be afraid to attend and I'm also concerned about your safety so I hope you reconsider.
@@KaritheMortician Thanks for your reply. Sorry but I still don't recommend it. The roads are dangerous, drivers have been blocked and attacked. People coming to your event may have to drive those routes. I know it's just my two cents worth but I also think you don't want that on your conscience either. Your choice, just putting it out there.
Hello good morning from barstow California, my son was killed seven years ago, they said they would cremate him with his clothes on is this true We cremated him in a very expensive Steelers jersey signature I truly hope so
It’s been a while but I think Caitlyn Doughty did a Viking funeral video! I think it’s around the death of her cat! I think it was proven that it wasn’t feasible!
Hey Kari, I’ve wanted to ask you this question before, but I never have. When my Dad died and we were at his viewing, he looked really good! I went to give him an “ear kiss” because that is what we had done from the time I was little, to tell him I loved him. I touched his ear. And gently squeezed his ear. My mom came over and said “We aren’t supposed to touch him honey they don’t want us touching him. I was like. WHY NOT? This is my Dad whom I dearly loved! I want to say goodbye?! What is your feeling on this??
I feel like the spirit is present in some manner at their services and viewings. I am a Dad and if you my ear one last time I would be thrilled with your personal goodbye. As a child I was always holding my Grandmother’s hands and the funeral director got a chair and unfolded her hands. I sat there for 10 minutes holding her left hand, It felt so good to me that was forty years ago. He asked me to go with him jus after and he washed my hands and went back to my Grandmom and repositioned her hands and put a little make up that I hand rubber off… Then he asked me If I would like to ride with her in the hearse to the cemetery. with the hundreds of people that were there, I got alone with her remains for 30 minutes. I was so happy and remember every song on the hearse radio…. I am so glad you kissed your Dad…. I am sure his spirit just loved it……. Good for you……. H
Hi Kari, I know the topic is breast implants. I missed your live video/ notification didn't happen. So... Did you know that not all implants (breast only) are not filled with silicone? Many are filled with saline (sterile salt water) with only a silicone shell. Would those be necessary to be removed also?
Don't want to offend anyone but if a person has died who has changed their gender do they have their birth name on the coffin or the new name they went by no hate just curious
Kari!!! I am from Alaska born and raised!! I absolutely adore your channel and would love to be able to ask you some questions for your Q&A segment. My name is Melanie. How can I reach you?!
Dumping ashes on someone else's property would be like dumping natural gray clay kitty litter out on someone else's property, yeah it's natural as well & cremated remains would be about the same texture even though it's natural as well 🤷
I love the way you take time to explain everything. Thank you
So nice of you
So sorry about your divorce. It's almost like losing someone by death. I pray God keeps you and spoils you with his great love. As I know you are a believer. God Bless Kari !!!
Thank you!!
Never heard of Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease until my Aunt got diagnosed with it in January and passed February 1st.
Wow so fast!
@Kari the Mortician Right! As terrible as it sounds to say she didn't have to suffer with it long. 😢

Is aqua cremation less expensive than regular ?

WHenever I make my way to Texas
Dallas here
Does the retour have to be clean out every time a new person gets cremated
it is brushed out butyou cant get every piece
Did you get my question?
:)
I missed the live stream but watched just now. Great info! Your patience is contagious Kari 😊
Thanks!
I grew up in Michigan. About an hour from Kalamazoo. Have you ever heard of Lake Odessa?
Have you ever had someone brought into your care that have had body peirceings and do you remove them or leave them?
We leave them and take direction from the family

So I have a friend who just started a new job in a hospital in a cancer until she had a patient die and the nurse asked her to bag the body. The nurse had her tie the deceased arms and legs. She didn’t know why but she said it was for the funeral home? Is that common practice for the industry
I would not recommend that because they can leave marks on the deceased if not done well
@@KaritheMortician thanks I just never heard of such a thing I was taking a back about it I know I wouldn’t want my arms like that not very dignified
Does a body have to be in a casket to be cremated?
A wooden boz
A rigid container is required by most crematories
Kari, do they have to seal a niche for cremated remains with caulk like they do for trad. burials?
If it was the last urn to go in they probably would
Good afternoon Kari have a awesome day
Same to you
With the vaults......I'm in Tennessee and there was a new grave being dug at a really really cemetery recently. I couldn't help but stop and look at the hole one evening.

Down the drain. Assuming you mean water cremation

You would have to store the deceased somewhere until the mausoleum was completed.

Welcome!
They told me down here that you rent a caskit and they reuse it.
I think that is common practice if the casket is only used for viewing and the body is meant to be cremated.
@@DibIrken
Sure they reuse caskets .
My husband and his sister had a service first , then they were cremated. They told us how much it would cost to rent the caskets. It's like renting a car or house . You use it , then when you are done with it , they rent it out to some other family.
They even rent out clothes!
My sister in laws dress was rented ! Sounds crazy but its true. She had nothing on being cremated, but her brother had on a Eagles football outfit on and was cremated in it .
There are many things that are out there for the dead 💀
You rent the casket your paying for the material thats in the casket that cant be reused but the casket can the just remove the material
You can rent a casket and that means just the shell not the interior which you purchase
@@KaritheMortician i was right too
Have you started shaking hands or not wearing masks due to Covid?
Yes I shake hands if someone does
I’m in Alaska. What do you need?
I'm a meat and potato girl too and I love mixing corn and mashed potatoes
Yum!!
What’s the main reason States are taking their time for Aquí Cremation? It seems more Environmentally safe.
Legislation just takes forever and EPA takes forever
Hanging plants never survive. They are in lousy soil or base that doesn't hold moisture for the plant, the water runs right through. They will survive longer if you replant them in a good soil base.
:) Thank you
Our hospice nurse had us mix all of my uncles medications with cat litter to destroy them
That is interesting
@@KaritheMortician the cat litter absorbs the meds and then makes them undesirable.
Three of my frequently watched RUclips channels are from Michigan Lehto's Law, Lawrence Systems and your channel.
Awesome

How long after death does the eyes turn white
They cloud over pretty quickly but do not turn white

Hey Kari❤️
Hello Donovan!
Can you imagine being by a retort and hearing the explosion from a pacemaker
It is loud
I've messaged my classmate (from North Dakota) to see if she'd be game to knock out ND for you
Yeah!!

I think that is a feeling coming from your mom and not the funeral home.
When is your birthday ?
In June :)
We had my dad's pacemaker removed and send veterinarian school to be reused on a animal.
I have not heard of that option very cool
Hi Kari, I know the topic is breast implants. I missed your live video/ notification didn't happen. So...
Did you know that not all implants (breast only) are not filled with silicone?
Many are filled with saline (sterile salt water) with only a silicone shell.
Would those be necessary to be removed also?
