As if I were your loved one's!! That was someone's son. A severe level of psychopathic behavior and a kin to taking someone's life. Pathetic people.

As someone who has worked many years in the UK funeral industry I can say for certain that I totally agree with everything that you have said in your comment on here. I alway's alway's told everyone that worked with me that you only get one chance of doing this the right way with respect and dignity, there's No do-overs when laying a loved one to rest.

@@simonr6793 its even worse though. He was already buried. I can't believe this is happening in America. This particular area is running rampant with misconduct especially in the handling of the deceased. It is bizarre to think that these things go on anywhere in the world.

Excellent explanation! I'm not taking sides. But doing it your way, given what you are telling us means this cemetery probably would have to do that for dozens or hundreds of sites, right?

@@Alvan81 No, just when an incident occurs which results in damaging an already interred occupant's grave in such a way that exposes the corpse. I am from Wisconsin and the procedure we followed is dictated by state and county law. It is to ensure that the breach was not criminal, like in the case of grave robbery or something more sinister.

Exactly. At the very least, they should have disposed of the garbage and old materials properly instead of throwing them on top of the poor guy and treating him like garbage. It's super disrespectful. I'm so glad someone found it in their heart to notify the family. I really question what else this cemetery might be doing that they shouldn't. This probably isn't the 1st time they've done this either sadly. Smh...shame on someone.

Agent j. Respect to you. As for what you wrote totally spot on with everything you did. As someone who has worked many years in the UK funeral industry I know that what you said is the correct way to do thing, we all know accidents do happen and when water whether river/lake or even low-level underground water is involved these things do unfortunately happen more often than not. But Sir hats off to you for handling your own situation in the right professional manner.

i know of a cemetery on the other side of Michigan the guy that ran it was vary shady

Inspect and/or look up ratings of cemeteries prior to purchasing tombs, Graves and cremation disposition niches. Most are reputable but small older/private cemeteries may not have the required staffing for updating processes and maintenance requirements regarding cemetery concerns.

Did you know... that in most cases if a grave is at least 100 years old, they can legally dig them back up, vault, casket with remains in it and tear down headstone. They then demolish everything and dispose of everything! Like dig a big hole somewhere else, put as many as they need to in it and mass bury them. Like trash. This usually happens if the Cemetery is getting full and they need more plots. The evacuated graves are then refilled with dirt and the plot can be resold. I found this very disturbing to say the least. Ck your cemetery to see what the oldest dates are. It might surprise you...​@kingpickle3712

There are all kinds of heroes....

Clearly concrete & debris inside a casket is not from normal wear & tear! i have never seen or been inside a casket nor do i want to but how does concrete get inside a casket?

Probably when digging the new grave next to the family's graves caused the collapse not normal wear and tear.

@@eduardocruz4341 But concrete?

Exactly. The casket was damaged from the GARBAGE THEY PLACED ON TOP OF HIM. I am truly upset for this family. Unacceptable and our largest cemetery in our area where I planned to be laid to rest. Am rethinking my options now.

@@susanritchie4921 nowadays the coffins don't go into bare ground. You have to place a concrete vault in the burial hole then place the casket in the vault and seal it with a concrete lid so it won't float back up if the ground gets saturated with water like during a flood. The concrete may be from the old vault that was damaged from digging the new grave next to the father's.

And a few beers 🍻

@@anitakristensen4679 nice big tokes

Man, that's so messed up! I'm very sorry about that.

As a Jamaican, I can confirm that this happens with some frequency. it happened with my uncle's grave. It is partly because the cemetery workers mix concrete on the graves of others. You see, when a person is buried, the custom is mix and cover the grave right there at the graveside as part of the proceedings. When the cement cures and dries, what is left is just a flat cemented slab covering the entire grave. A year or so after, a tomb is supposed to be placed on the grave. The problem is that many wait years before they finish the grave and tombstone with granite etc. and so when others are buried, sometimes the idiotic workers, mix the cement on top of an old grave which destroys any markings on the grave.

Did the same thing with my father!

Totally true! Hip hip. Hooray! To that guy who told.

Id rather not know that they were disrespectful of my loved ones grave.My loved one is only the body in the grave.They left the body and moved on.This would just make me upset at their death all over again.Regrief id call it.

There's hope yet for humanity.

Nah, he created unnecessary trauma for the family. The cemetery collected the remain including the coffin and placed it in a new vault.

Interesting

I had a friend, God rest his soul, who worked in a grave yard back in the 80s. He told me similar stories. Being a graveyard worker is no fun. There’s turnover and I don’t just mean employment.🤦🏻‍♂️

A grave should not sink ‘a few feet’ over the winter if properly filled. Maybe a hole you just haphazardly plopped some dirt on top of to fill, but the hole is only 5 feet deep total, and the vault with lid is usually about 3 feet tall.There are cemeteries out there that sink their graves with water to speed up the process of Mother Nature, and others that use tamping equipment to repack the soil, and even lay the sod back down over top when the weather permits.

Thats illegal to bury one on top another in the same grave unless the first one was buried like 10ft down, atleast where I live unless it a side by side companion plot or if you are talking urns there can be several. Had some ahole grave diggers try that with my grandma, instead of burying her next to her husband in the empty plot they went a row back and two or three over. They had it dug and were going to put her ontop of her mother in law! My mother and I showed up just in time. They had to fill it in and redig were they were supposed to. In the meantime we had to tell them to park the hearse in the shade bc they had it parked in the mid july sun! Didnt notice until after the funeral but they had taken up all or granite cornerstones and had buried them in the grave too!

We all know no one can “ look down”.

Funeral Homes and Cemetery’s have had their issues in the past. One cemetery was flooded, coffin’s floated away and left further away from the cemetery. It wasn’t discovered until someone noticed a coffin where it wasn’t supposed to be.

@@davidfromamerica1871 the tristate thing was just aweful.I think they put that guy inprison for it all.It was north Georgia i think.

@@justinsimpson3000 Please tell me what matters once you are in the dirt?

That's beautiful Owen. So many get tied up by their worth based on religion (Christians especially) which the funeral business loves to exploit. In my family, we do cremations and spread ashes in beautiful places we enjoyed while we lived. There's record of every death, no headstone is necessary to show you once lived on this earth. Digital cemeteries exist now too, everyone is accounted for. I won't leave anything behind for my family to have to tend. Life is for the living. 🌻☀

​@@Mandy7D7 as a Christian myself I would say Christians are less obsessed with what happens to there bodies after death. I plan on cremation and scattering of ashes with no headstone. I had some Catholic family that insisted on embalming, body viewing, burial and headstones so maybe a Catholic thing but the majority of Christians I know are not concerned with this temporary vessel our soul is contained in.

@@nancid5265 Underground, the body relatively soon turns to dirt. Sure, some can last thousands of years, but most are little more than dirt within fifty or a hundred years. So, those old bodies aren't going to be resurrected. The main thing to focus on is the fact you have everlasting life in another form. The body is of the Earth and will soon return to it. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

@@nancid5265 Do you think there are any bodies from 2,000 years ago that were buried? Plants did not exist before the sun, moon and stars. The bible is a work of fiction.

@@the_gilded_age_phoenix8717there you are wrong. Our bodies will be resurrected but the Lord does not the earthly body for the resurrection. We will be resurrected from the dust of the earth if our physical bodies have returned to the earth. That’s what returning to the earth means….not that our bodies are put in the earth but that they break down and become one with the earth. And from that very earth our glorified bodies will arise when the Lord comes again, At least that’s what will happen to believes. Unbelievers will rose to resurrection of judgment…eternal death.

The family sleeps on memory foam. I feel sorry for the dad. He sleeps under rubble and debris.

These vaults cost the family in times of grief. They should've been done right. Lawsuit for a new one. The coffin and remains are ruined. Make them pay.

@@sheliabattle1129 My mother had a debilitating terminal disease, and according to her, she purchased an inclusive burial contract for all the items needed at the time of her death. This supposedly included casket, memorial service, burial, and the burial plot directly beside her to be used for the first death of her children. She paid for these services on this contract for years, had it paid off way before her death, and informed us children her burial would be completely paid for at her death and we should not incur any other financial burdens to be paid by any of us. Two of us (one being the executrix of momma's will), went to the funeral home to start mothers burial.. We had momma's will and her burial contract showing all paid off, and all we needed to do was contact them. They proceeded to try get us to "upgrade" her casket, add additional flowers, provide more music, more chairs, add a larger marble headstone that could include to person to be buried next to her at a later date, for a much higher cost. We declined all as we told them, our mother had already planned her funeral, and we were going to stay with her final wishes. Then, came the "extra price" for the concrete vault required by Texas law, stating all coffins must be enclosed into a concrete vault. This was many years ago, and the price then was $800, paid before said burial. The executrix asked why this wasn't covered by her contract, and they stated, "(the concrete vault), probable wasn't required by the state at the time she bought the contract". Watch out for "fine print", "requirements by your home state", and, if these extra things are covered by their contract. The time when your loved one dies is extremely stressful, and there ae some employed by the funeral home to take advantage of the family's desires to "get the best for momma/daddy/son/daughter". Think realistically. When a parent or child purchases a burial contract, have someone go with them to ensure all requirements are addressed, and all desires are included in the contract, and if not , why not. Funerals are BIG BUSINESS! Don't get caught by the short hairs! Thank you for reading!

Thankfully we do not put stock in dead remains. If you believe in an afterlife, (not saying people have to believe that), you're not concerned about dead flesh as you know the person's spirit and soul are with Christ.

@@thewordrules I understand this but it's about respecting the dead. The term "proper burial" means something and the financial cost of said burial is very expensive as I'm sure you already know.

Caskets can become compromised for any number of reasons, even in a crypt, and even because of bad choices on the cemetery owners part. Why is it actually worth that money? It's not, but it can be because people pay it and American funerals are an industry. Grandma deserves the luxury silk casket lining, right?

@@tashacherry1480 Its expensive because of preying on sentimentality and ignorance of chemcial, ecological processes/entropy. Name any other situation where you would bury something in the ground and expect it to 'survive' in any kind of good condition. There is absolutely nothing positive that is gonna come from digging up remains from 30 years ago. Under ANY circumstances. "if they wouldn't have gotten those photos, they wouldn't have known..."

@@diamondzrain1216 Yes the funeral home places the body in a casket and transports it to the cemetery but typically the cemetery will provide the vault. Regardless, somehow the vault was compromised whether from degradation or abuse by the cemetery workers which caused the damage to the casket. So again, do not blame the funeral home.

@@diamondzrain1216 The family or the person themselves purchased a “cheap casket”. It’s not the funeral homes fault. They did what they were told. Plus nothing lasts forever.

@@diamondzrain1216 I'm sorry to say but the person you're talking to about this is totally correct in what there telling you.

Hello Rhonda

@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?

Are you serious?! Look at historical cemeteries, not to mention archeological sites that are dug up and/or moved each year. Capitalism at it's finest... Cemeteries sell out to other companies which in turn sell out to different companies. Bottomline, cremation seems to be the best way to make sure one's remains are placed where one wishes them to be, without the chance of them being dug up at a later date.

Absolutely. The infuriating part is they persist in denying ANY wrongdoing(while trying to make themselves out to be altruistic martyrs). My Mom died when I was 23 and the hospice nurse called a funeral home themoment she died and they showed up fast and wiskdd away my Mom's body. When the guy shook my hand and said, "I'm sorry for your loss...", I had a flash of him reciting this line in front of his mirror. My Mom's little sister fired them promptly and had Mom transferred out of their care. God bless.

@@buck4yergold498 This is interesting. The nurse didn't ask the family to notify their funeral home, she took it upon herself to call one of her choosing?

@@fifty9forty3 Yes. My aunt thought that the hospice nurse may have gotten a kickback for getting that funeral home out so fast to take the body. Most people may just go along with it in that grieving state. But my aunt is the corporate type(head of Dayton Hudson auditing dept in 80's doing all audits of the Target stores across the country). She smelled a rat 🐀... Im so glad she fired them and had Mom moved.

Buck: Thank you for getting back to me. The nurse was taking advantage of you in grief.

Lower the caps and be more respectful.

@@mariuskuhrau761 Rotting or rusting it's a complete waste of money, time and effort!

My mom and dad pre-planned their funeral and at that time the church was building a mausoleum and they had a reasonable price for plots, or vaults as they called the above-ground place of rest, so they went with it. So far so good. But sadly I have seen videos here on YT where funeral homes had been abandoned and remains are still inside to be buried, or placed in an abandoned mausoleum. Does anybody know if there is a law made since that if remains are found to be buried, there has to be a proper burial for those remains? It just is disrespectful to the dead and makes you wonder if another funeral home is permitted to sign on to the job if the people who run the first funeral home take off, leaving remains behind. I remember hearing too about incomplete or excessive embalming fluid being used certain places and it made the body unfit for a viewing. It makes you wonder how some undertakers can do that. Some people have also found coffins and mausoleum drawers leaking after an improper embalming and as the remains break down, there is a leak. All I can say is take your time and check out funeral homes well to make sure you feel secure about the place that does the preparation and care of your loved one. It's best to pre-plan if you can. My parents were far from rich, but they were able to pay off their final resting spot so that it didn't come to chaos when a loved one passed.

@@tuxitalk1World No, no pre-planning. Don't pay up-front. After that, your money is GONE. If the owners die or leave it, good luck getting your money back. They'll claim you owe more $$$, too, after the fact. Green burial.

Living or deceased. However it must be said that yeah, there is unfortunately alot of unscrupulous people in this business aswell and its no secret that it has historically been corrupt. If you feel like the funeral home isnt showing the respect deserved then please do take your loved somewhere else. It dosnt matter if the funeral home is or is not doing what theyre supposed to, if you are not at peace with them dont let it go because you will spend the rest of your life questioning that feeling. BUT also i would ask you give us a chance to prove that we arent all like that and to not generalize us that way too terribly much. Protecting your loved ones will always come first, as they should, but people dont need that added level of stress while dealing with us of wondering how the funeral home is abusing their loved one or taking advantage of them. Grief is hard enough, last thing i want is a family to feel they have to be on guard around me when my job is to make this easier for them to make it through. Again, im not trying to argue that you shouldnt be aware of bad actors. Only that most of us only want to help. Lord knows we dont do it for our health, and honestly knowing that every single day i go into work will be a fresh memory of someones sorrow, or another nightmare I'll have of a child, doesnt exactly get me jumping out of bed.
