    My dad died during a horrific snowstorm years ago, and his body had to be stored in the funeral home until the cemetery reopened for burials when we got there we couldn’t of course do graveside because of the threat of the whole thing caving in and killing people so we had it was held right there Road right beside it and the vault was there. The casket was lowered into the vault lid placed, and then we left after that but they then you know with a crane or whatever kind of equipment took the whole thing and lowered the whole thing into the ground, that was weird, but it was done with great dignity, these men who do these things are very sensitive and kind people

    Ladies and gentlemen watching this casket lowering process, please take note:
    The three gentlemen who arrived during the lowering process, and obviously after the interment service was completed, are there at will, but it is a very important aspect of the lowering process. You and your buddies need to stick together and make sure that you actually go in and that that wonderful casket and vault is put where they are supposed to be put, before it’s all said and done. So yes, there’s a bit of ha ha here but actually someone really does need to witness all the way to the dirt being tapped. That’s how you know for sure that everything was done right. Nothing will be left to conjecture then.

      While that is true and absolutely welcome at every service, the men in this video are the cemetery workers and the man off to the side is a director. I do not film with family present unless they ask me to, which has happened a few times. Personally my family and I prefer to stay for the entire process, to make sure it's done properly but also it does offer a sense of closure to the life of our lost loved one. In my opinion everyone should handle the Burial of family the way they chose, but having someone to hold the funeral home, vault man, and cemetery crew accountable is always advised, thank you for your comment!

      While I only found your page a few weeks ago, I’ve watched literally dozens and dozens of the shorts over the last few weeks. There’s something about the way that you have chosen to produce your videos that leaves me heartened and inspired. I guess if I had a complaint, it would be that more than a few of them seem to just stop (not counting the multi-part ones).
      On my above comment, I took liberty with my thought that perhaps the three gentlemen were just family returning after the fact and that you had somehow received permission to use the video anyway. So, I truly appreciate that you returned here with your comment in order to set things straight and to make things clear as to what was going on.
      Great job ..

      The metal on the caskets is extremely thin. The weight of the soil on top over time would cause the top to collapse.

While marching to the grave site we observed many sunken graves where over the centuries the wooden caskets had rotted away in Charleston's hot, moist, humid and very rainy climate.

      I know in Maryland no matter what casket you have. It still has to be a container and so if you have a stainless steel casket, it’s still goes into a concrete liner, although there are different kinds of liners of course at different costs so you go through all making all those decisions I don’t think that there is anything, that really keeps out everything because if it’s completely sealed, I understand that mold grooves all over the body and it takes actually takes longer to decay so that’s why there is that thin space between the lid and the bottom part. The only thing that doesn’t need a vault is cremation again here in Maryland my sister died and I bought a small Marble container at her cage were in there and I chose to bury that because I didn’t want necklaces or anything like that I mean what would happen to him if I died do you know if there’s no nobody to inherit them anyway I buried it, but they didn’t because it had already been cremated so if you don’t like bugs crawling over your belly popping over cremation is a better way to gocleaner and faster

    Thank you for showing these. I had the opportunity to see and witness my Grandfather in Law be interned since I had to ride in the hearse and the driver had to stay and witness the actual burial and it was an honor to be there with him till the end. Do you ever get a chance to find out about the person being buried? I know you cannot name names, but a short voiceover about the persons life, kids, grandkids, accomplishments would be interesting to know about while watching your work.

      I think you are referring to what is called a "lawn crypt." I can't speak about Canadian cemeteries, but most American cemeteries do not have lawn crypts. Most American cemeteries use the system that you saw in this video. However, lawn crypts are becoming more commonly used in larger memorial parks throughout America.

      I've never seen in person the vault brought up, the vault sealed and then the whole thing lowered into the ground. I've always seen it done the way your describing. There are a various ways of doing it I guess. At the end of the day I'm not going to offer my suggestions to anybody as long as everything they are doing there is with the respect of the recently departed and surviving family in mind. That and everything is heavy and awkward. I'm not gonna recommend anything LOL.

    • @Illianaheadstonecareofficial
      @Illianaheadstonecareofficial  6 місяців тому +7

      The reason we display and close grave liners in this fashion is that our company believes every funeral deserves the same respect. Having the base of a Grave liner in the bottom of the grave doesn't effect its purpose at all, but sealed Burial Vaults are displayed this way to ensure the lid of the vault is aligned properly over the base to ensure a proper seal. It's more efficient to lower the casket and close the vault or grave liner above ground where the family can see that it is done properly before being lowered.
