Hw#48

I interviewed two people in my family I asked them questions about past experiences on people that have died in there families. The first person I interviewed told me a story about her father in law. She told me that her father in law died and she decided to organize a funeral and she told me the process of getting your loved ones into funeral homes. She had to pay to put him in the funeral home and she told me she paid for the clothes her father in law would have on and she paid for the coffin and she wanted to have a wake for him. She said you must take care of the dead good and you must pray over them every day. She is very religious and she talked mostly about praying over the dead. The other person I interviewed was a kid i know he explained how his grandfather died and how his grandfather wanted to have a burial and a funeral. He told me how his parents took the planning very serious. When he went to the funeral he told me that it was a better nice funeral home and it cost a lot of money he didn't want to tell me how much his parents sent on it. I asked the kid what he thought about death and how he felt about it he said that everyone is going to die and how everyone has to live without regrets and he thinks that we all go to heaven and we will be fine when we die. He had good thoughts about death and he was very positive just like the first person I interviewed.

  1. Anthony,

    you're blog was an interesting read, it had very good comparisons and stories. You interviewing a grown woman, and a child was what made reading this interesting. The first person you interviewed is obviously very dedicated to taking care of the deceased, but a question that came to mind when reading this is, is she superstitious? because you said she prays over the body, once every hour. For your next interviewee, I can tell he's like most people in our generation, we accept death because we know it affects everyone. For feedback though, your second interview (the kid) wasn't long enough, you just ended it, and i feel like you could of said more. Other than that, not bad, and i look forward to you're next blog.
