This memorial funeral home homer la photo is one of the most haunting images I have ever seen. I love the juxtaposition of the light, the shadow, and the people, and how so much of it is lost as a result of the passage of time.
It’s a beautiful photo, but it’s also a pretty accurate reflection of how much the memorial business is changing. You can now find lots of funeral homes that are all the same in terms of what they do, but their staffs and practices are almost completely different.
Its not just the funeral homes that are changing, the people within memorials are changing, too. When I was in high school, the Memorial Association was a real thing. The Memorial Association would let you pick a specific location for your memorial and then would rent out a space specifically designed to hold your service. The Memorial Association would pay to set up and run the space, and then the memorial would have a budget to pay for transportation to the funeral, food, and other services.
