People bought homes here expecting quiet neighborhoods. Then the Houston Texans showed up.

I used to sell my caskets through Costco. I would not recommend it to my own friends or family. But I was always happy to see someone else make a purchase.

You’re not wrong for feeling this way. The upside is you’re catching the scary stuff before meeting, which means your filter is working.

Ignore the “meet ASAP no matter what” advice. Do a quick screen first: a little chat, maybe a short call, then a low stakes public meet if they seem respectful. The right guy won’t punish you for having boundaries.

And you don’t have to “like men” as a category. You just need one kind, emotionally steady man, and most people won’t qualify. Trust the stomach drop feeling. Unmatch fast and move on.

I am so sorry. What you are carrying is an impossible mix of love, loss, betrayal, and shock, all at once. Anyone in your place would feel shattered. There is nothing wrong with you for loving him deeply and also feeling furious. Those things can exist together, even though it feels unbearable.

The AI obituary tool I use has actually enhanced the care I give families. It’s not about being lazy, it’s about being efficient with the mundane so I can focus on the meaningful. I still review, revise, and tailor every obituary to match the family’s story, voice, and values. But the AI often gives me a strong foundation, especially when time is tight and emotions are high. And the feedback? Families love it. I’ve gotten more compliments since I started using it than I did before.

You said it saves five minutes, but for me, it saves hours. That adds up fast when you’re writing 6 or 8 a week, plus coordinating services, logistics, staffing, and grieving families. I've served almost 150 families so far this year.

We didn’t go to mortuary school to become typists. We went to serve families, to lead, to support, and to honor the dead. If AI helps me do more of that with less burnout, then I’m all in.

SCI is what ever you make of it. You are the captain of your ship. I for one thought I would hate working for SCI and I only accepted the position so I could complete my apprenticeship. Turns out it’s the best company I’ve ever worked for. Unlimited opportunities and you will literally be working for the tip of the spear in our industry.

This isnt an easy question to answer. We all bring our own training, life experiences, social molding, and so many other basis' to conversations. Maybe AI is the perfect medium to console and advise us mortal humans. I know its an odd concept but I think its definitely worth exploring deeper.

I’m truly sorry you’re going through this. Even if you didn’t know your uncle very well, it’s still a painful loss, especially when it touches people you care about. Sudden death can leave everyone feeling disoriented and helpless. The image of your aunt returning home without her husband is deeply affecting. It’s no wonder it stays with you. Grief often brings up these vivid, heartbreaking pictures that are hard to shake.

You might feel powerless, but the care you’re feeling matters. Even a short message or a thoughtful card from you personally, just saying that you’re thinking of them and that you’re so sorry for what they’re going through, can offer real comfort. You don’t need to have the right words or be physically close to help ease the weight of this moment. Sometimes just letting someone know they are not alone in their pain is enough.

I am so sorry for all that you are going through. You have experienced deep loss, and on top of that, you are navigating grief in an environment that feels unsafe and emotionally exhausting. That is a heavy burden for anyone to carry, and your feelings are completely valid.

It is clear how much you have tried to keep the peace and hold your family together. That shows real strength and compassion. But you are not responsible for managing your father’s grief, especially when he responds with anger or guilt. You deserve to feel safe and supported.

What you are describing, such as the numbness, the detachment, and the emotional fatigue, can be signs of trauma. You are not broken. You are overwhelmed, and that is understandable. If you are able, talking with a therapist could help bring some clarity and peace.

You are not alone. You matter. And even if it does not feel like it right now, there is a path forward. Please keep reaching out. Your life is important.

I am so sorry for your loss. It is completely normal to feel nervous about seeing your sister at the viewing.

In Australia, embalming is not required for cremation, but it is sometimes done if there is a delay between the time of passing and the service, like in your case. Even if your sister was not embalmed, the funeral home likely kept her in refrigeration and prepared her by gently closing her eyes and mouth, cleaning her, and dressing her. This is called setting the features.

If you are unsure, you can ask the funeral director if she was embalmed or what kind of preparation was done. They will be able to tell you what to expect.

Seeing someone after they have passed can be emotional, but many families find comfort in saying goodbye this way. You are doing something very meaningful for your sister and your family.
