My mum has a terminal illness and because of this situation, we’ve had to start planning her wishes in anticipation of what she wants when she leaves us. Watching these videos gives me a different resonance of what I will be facing and how to try and help my mum describe her life according to her final inscription. There’s not enough words that will ever be able to do this, but seeing these interments makes me realise that my memories will be enough and that’s ok. Thank you, Lamont. I appreciate the effort you make in showing these places.

Addy, When my big sister first found out she had terminal cancer I was freaking out and she told me there is nothing the doctors can do about it, we all will die I am just going to die soon than others that's all, I thought my sister was tough before than but faced with her own morality she was tough, a fighter until the very end we lost my sister at 34, a mother of 3. The last few weeks of her life I regret not spending more time with her telling how I feel about her as I felt guilty as she was dying leaving us and I was going live to see her children grow up, please spend lots of time with your mum tell her how u feel b/c once they are gone that's it, all I have left is memories now but no one can take them away.

Hey Lamont. Nothing wrong with taking a date to a mausoleum. My ex girlfriend and I would occasionally visit cemeteries and mausoleums on dates because we appreciated the architecture and landscaping. I’m 36 and I will admit that it is rather unnerving to see the graves of people who were younger than you. You help me to remember just how precious life is because there were many who were not so fortunate to have lived long. Just keep doing what you do best, be safe, and god bless.

Deanna and Serena you are right, my cousin is a funeral director and said the same thing because he said they wrapped the casket in a big bag and secure it before they put it in the crypt because if the body starts decaying and sometimes liquefying the bag is suppose to contain that and the vent fans inside the crypt are prevent the smell but if the bag gets a hole in it it will leak out of the front of the crypt if the drain is clog.

Back around 1967, when I was around 20 years old, I brought a date to a mausoleum that had been beuilt around 1920. It was very creepy, and we were enjoying looking around the creepy place, until we were told to leave, and that it was not a place for "sightseeing". I find these mausoleums to be outrageous in concept and execution. They require continuous maintenance to keep the places from falling apart. A hundred years from now, all those mouldering and rotting bodies will have to be emptied out, and there will be no next of kin to approve disposal of the remains. Sticking pickled bodies in the wall is a future crisis waiting to happen.

Hey Lamont, I’m not certain if you’ve been there, but If you haven’t, you will want to see a mausoleum that allegedly holds the World Record for having the most stained glass, the mausoleum at Resurrection Cemetery outside of Chicago (also home to Chicago’s most well-known ghost referred to as “Resurrection Mary”) is where you want to visit. I don’t know if this mausoleum has an equal regarding the stained glass presentation. This is a place best enjoyed on a sunny day. I cannot recommend this destination enough. You can’t miss, it’s massive. I can provide pics as I’ve been there and toured the entire facility myself on 10/31/2017.

You really have to see this place to believe it, it’s really quite incredible! If you haven’t been yet, you definitely need to go. Peace.

Lamont, have you visited the Bishop's Mausoleum yet? That's one place I would love to check out from the inside. I find it interesting, though, when one looks at the exterior of some mausoleums they look small until you get inside. I would have no problem visiting old cemeteries, especially those with walk-in mausoleums and chapels. To me, it's like walking into another world...totally surreal! If you've seen the old series, 'COMBAT', they had an episode where the unit spent sometime in a cloistered convent, whose religious order mainstay of meditation was on death in a spirit of being mindful of our short mortal life as a key to wisdom and immortality. I found it very interesting in a lot of ways.

Got a kick out of hearing you speak out you heard that tap of a sound. It was a friendly spirit acknowledging to see someone entering that area. I'd say whoever it was was greatful as perhaps no one hasn't probably enter that area in probably many months. Thanks for that tour I enjoyed it. Hope your okay traveling Illinois.
