Funerals

I've decided that the one thing I do not like about my job is the funerals. Yesterday we had a funeral here for an older gentleman who I have known my entire life. His wife and him have attended here for many years. Bud had a terrible lung infection for many years and is much better off now. Today we are having a funeral for the mother of one of the ladies who attends here. Rosemary was 91. In the three years that I have worked here we have had 10 funerals here. I know the men from T.P. White and sons funeral homes on a first name basis. I don't mind the funerals so much but it is seeing everyone crying. I may not be close to the family or the person who passed away but my heart goes out to each family member. So, for the last two days I have done everything I can to just hide in my office. I've had a lot of work to do for the weekend anyway so I have a good excuse. Funerals can just be too emotionally draining.
