Death is possibly a sad subject, but one that is asked about many times. Having worked in the Funeral enterprise for over four years and probably seeing every aspect of death I can state that the journey we take after death can sometimes be a long one before we are finally at rest. Covered in this description are the events and possible outcomes that take place once we depart from the world of the living.
Sadly Death is Quite possibly the Only certify in Life...
Funeral Chapel
This is in no way a religious article, but instead is a general summary of the actual process that takes place for the majority of habitancy once they have died. What happens to my body when I die is a demand that is asked often and yet rarely gets a level transmit answer.
The first and possibly worst part about death is how we die; this in itself for some can be the guiding factor as to how we end up as well as getting there.
In most cases when man dies the majority of habitancy will end up whether being buried or cremated, but there are a few instances where this naturally isn't possible and only a ceremony can take place with a memorial erected that is dedicated to a loved one.
With so many habitancy wondering what happens to my body when I die it is clear a majority can be sure of dying whether at home or in a hospital bed or possibly an old peoples nursing home, hopefully their death will be age connected and with many great and enjoyable years gone before them.
They will be certified by a physician that they are verily dead prior to any other action. In some instances this might happen where the man died or possibly they might be moved to a mortuary or chapel of rest. There they will be checked by a second physician before conclusively being certified as dead.
Once relatives have agreed and made arrangements with an undertaker to carry out the funeral the deceased will then be collected by the undertakers and taken to their own mortuary or place of holding.
If the death is anyone but general then there will be the possibility of the coroner's office being involved. They may want that an autopsy is carried out in order to ascertain exactly why and how death took place.
If this is the case any house members may have to wait until the coroner releases the body before being able to cremate or bury their loved one. It is still possible to move transmit and make arrangements at this time with an undertaker and they can then mediate in the middle of the coroner's office and house as to what the coroner's plan of activity is or when the funeral can verily take place.
On a general route without the coroner being complicated a mortuary technician will embalm the deceased and place them in a coffin as chosen by the deceased's family. This is done in order to sustain the body so that house members are able to view the deceased prior to the actual funeral taking place.
The undertakers will make all the arrangements for the whole funeral for and on behalf of the deceased's family, which frees up the house to deal with contacting relatives and friends in order to pass on all the details, as well as their own mourning process.
On the day of the funeral the deceased's coffin will be located into the back of the chosen form of hearse. There are many discrete types used in this day and age from a motorcar or bike that have been converted into a hearse to a horse-drawn carriage. The coffin will also be surrounded by any flowers that have been sent to the undertakers for them.
The hearse and any limousines will then leave the undertakers and drive to the deceased families home to regain any further flowers as well as all the house and close friends that will be attending the funeral. From there the entourage will drive to the place of service. This might be a church, cemetery chapel or even the chapel at a crematorium.
The coffin will be taken into the church, generally by the funeral bearers and left inside while the assistance takes place. If it is a church then the coffin will be removed once the assistance has taken place and taken to the place of burial. The minister/vicar/father/priest will then do the committal and the bearers will lower the coffin into the ground.
Once the house have left the cemetery the grave diggers will then come over to the grave and fill it with the earth that was taken out in order to make the grave.
If the assistance has taken place at a crematorium then there are many variations as to what happens to the coffin once the minister/vicar/father/priest does the committal, but generally speaking the coffin whether has sliding curtains come over the front or it slides along the catafalque and straight through a coffin-sized doorway.
Once the house have left the crematorium the coffin is located into one of possible any massive cremators found at the back of the crematorium where it is cremated for a join of hours. A join of days later the house or undertakers can come and regain the ashes or if other arrangements have been made then have these carried out for the deceased's ashes.
There are of course many culminating factors and variations complicated in death and the disposal of human remains, but this is just a glossary as what happens with the general habitancy who want to know what happens to my body when I die...
This is why when generally posed with the demand what happens to my body when I die? We generally write back by stating that I want to whether be buried or cremated.
