In this book, Chris continues to talk about his involvement at serious situations, such as motor vehicle crashes and suicide, through to a lighter hearted look at moments, such as speeding hearses and falling caskets. In this book, Chris also answers 50 common questions about the funeral industry, such as: Why do funeral directors charge so much? -- Do you have to be embalmed? -- Why are pacemakers removed from a body? -- Is it true a body sits up when cremated? -- Can we bury Dad in the back lawn?
