But the 37-year-old mortician doesn't want to keep all the fun to herself: She thinks the rest of us should get to have a little more face time with the deceased. Let’s watch her video and have a discussion afterwards for this online interactive session. Local Funeral Director and Embalmer Barry Miller will join us to share about his work and answer questions you might have. Bring your thoughts and experiences!
