there's a tiktok of a guy at a funeral who is hammering the top of the casket and I wasn't sure why until someone said the cemetery would later put the body in a cheaper casket in order to resale the expensive casket. So he damaged it so they could not resell it. 😳

I run a cemetery in Ohio and I would say 95% of the burials the family leaves before we do anything. If the family wants to stay they are welcome to. The biggest reason we wait until the family is for safety and not everyone who comes to see the burial wants to have the lasting memory of the backhoe or dump truck dumping dirt on there loved one.

We were allowed to stay until the very end. We even watched them place my grandma into the cement case not sure what it's called, placed in the ground and watched them fill the hole. Heart wrenching but grateful we were to able to stay with her.

A cemetery by me in St. Louis was doing a service for a man. His mother reached across the casket and hit his baby mama, causing the casket to fall on the ground. Another cemetery, the casket was dropped in the body came out.

If the family is still present, does the funeral director needs to stay on site as well?

Some funeral homes got the body in the ground and take the casket back and reuse it. It’s happening more and more in United States of America. Is this happening to you?
