WE’RE BACK!
We’ve arrived in 2022! Which first, let me state, it needs to be pronounced “twenty twenty-two,” none of this “two-thousand” stuff has any place in my brain. Last year was HUGE for this article. What? It was the first full year of publication, we got a killer sponsor, and each week funeral professionals from across the globe clicked on our ridiculous headlines to have a little fun and get a little break. And if you’re thinking, “Well, you can’t top that,” you are sadly mistaken! This year we’re going bigger and better, fasty-er and wrapy-er; we’re doing it all!!! To kick us off we have a goat riding a skateboard. Like who else is starting out your year with a goat riding a skateboard? LET’S GO, FOLKS!
GAME TIME!
Which one of these celebrities got their start in the funeral profession?
a) Dolly Parton
b) Howard Stern
c) Danny DeVito

FIVE GOALS EVERY FUNERAL PROFESSIONAL SHOULD SET IN 2022
- At least try wearing a different tie. Spice it up a little bit, give Old Trusty a rest.
- Try using the phrase “ay caramba” on a weekly basis. See if anyone around you notices.
- Don’t accomplish goal two while meeting with a family.
“Well, losing grandma has been hard on us.”
“Ay caramba…” - Come up with a new funeral joke. The world needs something better than “this is a dying business.”
- Just keep crushing it! Keep serving every family like they’re your only family and spread a little love!
