(32:08) – Josh's most unusual funeral story... ----- Takeaways Being a funeral director requires adaptability and the ability to handle unexpected situations. Building relationships with families is crucial in the funeral industry. Funeral directors have a high level of responsibility and must always be on their A-game. The job can be emotionally and physically draining, but the rewards make it worthwhile. Word of mouth and positive reviews are important for the success of a funeral home. Funeral directors serve a diverse range of clientele and must be able to cater to different needs and preferences. Treat every family with the same respect and attention to detail, regardless of their financial situation. Separate personal life from work and focus on taking care of the families in front of you. The job of a funeral director can be emotionally challenging, but it also provides a unique perspective on life and the importance of family. Funeral directors often encounter unusual and memorable situations, such as a man jumping into his wife's grave or a family distributing vials of cremated remains as party favors.
