This may sound wrong of me, but it would be quite an easy job for the correct department to remove that glass and replace it with a clear mega strong new piece. After all it was the deceased person's wish that the glass be there. I'm sure they would have approved if done respectfully. Think about it: if your glasses were dirty, would you appreciate someone cleaning them for you?.

I agree!!

When my 38/39 year old son passed I asked to see his body before they prepared him for the funeral. In my opinion he looked so beautiful in death. It was sad yet peaceful and somewhat joyous. Of course then they prepared him for the viewing and my son did not look at all like my son. I preferred the way he looked before they manipulated his face and put the make up on him. I wish people could have seen him in his natural death state. I’m sorry if that seems morbid, it’s just a part of what happens as we pass from this life into the next. I’m so glad I viewed my son before they touched him. Yes I took pictures and cherish them.

I did the same with my mom, I was lucky to spend a good hour with my mom immediately after she was found and she looked so beautiful and had passed away with a peaceful smile on her face and it was comforting to know that she didn’t suffer and was really chilled out. We had the option of seeing her before her funeral and it was a shock to say the least, she just didn’t look like our mom, we had to literally look at an angle near her head to see her, but me and my sister changed her hair as I had asked them to curl her hair and paint her nails in her favourite nail polish colour. We also took a pair of high heel red “dolly” shoes as my mom was a real shoe addict when she was younger and was gutted when she had to stop wearing them. So we made sure she went looking her best and we put her favourite tea cup and a tea bag and put photos and messages in her coffin. Her skin was still so soft even in death so I gave her a kiss before we left. It was a massive shock but we were so glad we both went to say a private goodbye to my mom. She was cremated which was a shame because of the messages etc but we knew that she was beautiful and all done up and at least in our eyes she would look amazing even up in heaven, and we wanted her to look her best. We put her beautiful suit on that she wore for my wedding 2 years prior and her neighbour had crocheted a beautiful shawl which was placed over here. Then we had her favourite football club shirt over her coffin and we went past all of her favourite places including her favourite shop where she regularly went shopping and met friends for dinner. People shopping that day were very shocked and I know our mom would have killed us for doing that but we knew she would be laughing at us. We also knew that some of her friends would be there. The mad thing was that on the day a man had to step in on his day off as someone was ill, his name was Troy and my moms main song was from the film “Troy” and he was originally from Chelsea which was my moms favourite football club. He came over to us after her funeral and asked if we believed in fate and we said yes and he said that it had never happened to him before in all his years of working but he believed that mom had made sure that he was there that day. He was honestly so spooked by it, and I said “well that was our mom for you, and we always said that when she passed she was to let us know if she was watching over us and with us” and boy she did and that gave us a lot of comfort at the end of the day and the man just couldn’t get over it, bless him but yes I am glad I went to see my mom and luckily I remember her when she passed and I’ve blocked the image of my mom in the coffin due to the shock, but I am so glad me and my sister had those last moments with her. It made it so much easier for us and helped us heal. That was just over 3 years ago now x

@@lisagreenway8410I’m so sorry about your mom. I really enjoyed reading her story. I’ve told my kids when my time comes to put pictures of me on the casket and don’t have it open. People lie to make the family feel good when they say how good they look. Plus I don’t want all that done to my face. My grandma was one of the first to get breast implants when they came out with silicone. She was in her early 20’s. She never had to wear a bra after that. And that’s what she wanted. She would have been so proud because they stood up perfectly & perky in her casket. 😂 When my mother in law passed 2 years ago from a 5 year battle with colon cancer that spread my kids put some of her fav things in her casket. They put a tube of chapstick in each hand because she was obsessed with it. We found chapstick all over the house and her vehicle. My kids said when it comes my time they are going to start the funeral but have them roll me in 10 minutes late because I’m always late! I was even as a kid. My whole life I’ve been told I’d be late for my own funeral. I told them if they didn’t do it I would haunt them! 😂 I also love to make people laugh. I told them I’d rather people laugh at my funeral rather than cry.

As a kid, there used to be a grave close to my Uncle's house with a partial glass top. You could actually see the man's face. And he was buried with the axe he was using when a tree fell on and killed him. As time went on, all his features were obscured with mold until they finally painted over the glass top. We kids used to go look at "William" whenever I visited. I think the grave has been moved somewhere else, as it was in a farmer's field. This was all over 60 years ago

I was there in the summer of 2021. I saw the exact grave you’re referring to. There is also a gravesite that has a small stairwell going down to where a little girl was laid to rest. The story goes is that when she was alive, lighting terrified her. So the family had a window (now blocked in) made in to the head of the tomb. When the lighting struck, the grieving mother would go down the staircase and read to her little girl.

When stones are tall and narrow like the ones you’re seeing there, they had to bury 1/3 of the stone in the ground for support. So if you see a 4 foot stone, 2 feet of it is underground. Stones of that nature are no longer allowed in cemeteries in England and I’m not certain about here in America. As the ground settles, they tend to shift, tilt, sway, and sometimes because of the stress they just break off. There has to be a special footing 2 to 2 1/2 feet underground to support the stone, but even then there can be instability.

I am terrified at that too. I could not even do a MRI. I’d like to see a video on the newest way people are being buried. The natural compost way. Also, another video would be a series on the elaborate graves that spared no expense with their final resting places. Also, I would like to say that my mother passed away this year on 02-14-2023. Valentins day. One of the best “gifts” she left me was that she had ALL her arrangements made down to the smallest detail. All paid in full. When things like this happen, the family is in such a emotional state, but it’s hard to decide, pay for, have everything your loved one wanted done. She was 93 and would’ve been 94 on 02/25/2023. We buried her on her birthday. I can’t tell you what a relief it was to have everything arranged and that’s what I want to do for my husband and children. I think that’s very important that people know this. Of course she comes from the times when people did that. t’s such a crazy world people don’t even think about their final arrangements anymore. She left me the best inheritance ever…… not money, not real estate …… her thinking of her loved ones and taking care of her arrangements. It was a beautiful service.

I've loved cemeteries since I was a small child. Every year the entire extended family would travel together to all of the family cemeteries to visit graves and leave flowers. It was a big family party! So cemeteries don't scare me at all, I love them and the history. I try to imagine what the people were like. I'm the family historian now.

That place is so well taken care of! It's beautiful!

I find it rather ironic that in going to such lengths to quell the fear of being buried alive, you end up being covered in layers of suffocating moss instead. I wonder if this was considered at the time?

It is a common sign of respect, and it’s not for making wishes. However this tradition has been done as long as people have been leaving coins at wishing wells,

In my country we had this one nobelman and great philantropist, who lived in the 18th and at the beginning of the 19th century and was very interested in the problem of people buried alive - even those who couldn't afford such elaborate coffins. He sponsored a hospital and there was a special protocol for a dead body to be kept under a close watch for any sign of life. This nobelman was inspired by a cruel thing that happened to his brother. He was burried alive in a family crypt and when the crypt was opened again, he was found on the stairs with the signs of starvation. The nobelman was shaken to the core by this and he tried to find a way to prevent it to ever happen again to anyone else.

I was once told that the term "Dead Ringer" came from the bell system that was set up to alert people that the buried was alive. Cool video, Thanks

So getting a chance to look through the window was pretty intense. Honestly I'm not sure if I actually would have been able to stomach a person's dead face but do appreciate your dedication. Carry on with what you do & I'll continue to stop by on occasion. 😊

Covered in moss and grass, dewdrops dotting the glass like stars, people glittering coins across your grave... in death, I hope there's some kind of consciousness, because this seems like one of the most peaceful ways to sleep for eternity, in spite of the windows original purpose.

What a beautiful old cemetery. Since I was a kid I loved visiting old cemeteries and was fascinated reading the inscriptions and dates.

In modern times even if someone is actually not dead at the time they are ruled dead the autopsy, cremation or embalming take care of that. There was a video from a foreign country of a woman buried with a small window in her casket right before dirt being shoveled in a video camera caught a hand move across the window but no one saw it happen at the time. That was disturbing.

As I remember, my Mother had the fear of being buried alive, she was extremely claustrophobic. She passed away at home, from a massive heart attack.....in her sleep in February, 1991.....I know she was gone......I saw the inside of her mouth, her tongue was pasty white from lack of blood flow......I was talking to my brother, just yesterday....he brought it up, I did not......I was alone with her....the whole thing haunted me for a very long time.

My wife died in 2014 in the hospital. I was there with her every day. Long story "simple operation". She was on a respirator, etc. The last Dr was honest, i.appreciated that. He said she had 1 chance, even if it worked she could still die. I talked to her mother & family. Her mother said, she's not there, that's just a machine etc. So I said wait till after midnight, as it was Mothers Day, didn't want her going on Mothers day. Shortly after midnight, me her sister & youngest daughter were there, they turned off the machine, she was gone in a less than 2 minutes by my reckoning. I know this, I told my family & every one else. Do not expect me to "pull the plug" for any one, ever again. Nothing romantic, nothing great, nothing nice at all. I know she was extremely ill fought 7 yrs, was in excruciating pain, etc. But I will never take that responsibility again. It still bothers me. So much so, I haven't even tried to have another relationship, in 7 yrs. I know my wife is no longer in pain, no more constant visits to the several specialist, etc. So there's that.

Wow, absolutely amazing. I also, truly, appreciate the old world & the souls that passed through it. Can you imagine that every soul buried in the cemetery experienced many, many, many different experiences and situations. If only we could access our memory banks after desth, and have our lifetime played out on our headstones for others to experience as well. Last summer, I lost both of my uncles, they were brothers, 8 days apart from each other. The oldest brother passed away first, in my home, from a heart related condition. We had his wake, and his burial was 7 days later. The day after we buried him, his brother passed away, from a heart related condition as well. He literally couldn't take the desth of his older brother, he was such a kind hearted, sweet soul - he had survived being hit by multiple cars & an RTA bus in his lifetime.. he was (we believe) autistic, couldn't read or write much at all. He was the definition of pure hearted, in his early 70's. He never harmed a fly, he cared for all living and nonliving of this earth, even his older brother who was not such a good soul.. unfortunately, my 12 year old daughter witnessed his death, it was quite gruesome, he main artery to his heart basically exploded.. before i could make it to the house to clean up his blood, she had hurriedly cleabed it so our 90 yr old grandmother would not have to see it. I had finished cleaning his blood, boy did it break my heart. I was the closest to him in our family, besides my daughter, i had cherished him immensely, i would have given my remaining 50-60 years of life, so that he could have had just 1 more year. Unfortunately, we cannot afford to pay for either of my uncles gravestones, actually we are being sued by the funeral home (which hosted both of our uncles funerals, though they were buried in separate cemeteries for financial reasons). Somehow, the funeral home added extra charges onto the bill after the fact, and now in our grief, my family is trying to figure out how to help my mother, their youngest sibling, pay for the remaining, added charges. All I wish & pray is to one day be able to have a headstone for my uncles. I guess I'll figure it out 1 day, I'm only 30 yrs old, I've got (hopefully) an entire lifetime to figure it out for my uncles. Thanks for reading this far, I just needed to vent I guess, as these past 10 months I've just been in shock at the sudden loss of both of my uncles.

Awesome! My brother and l have been in some old grave yards back in the 1970s on summer vacations with our parents in North Carolina’s. The graves were old there too. We chatted with some people who were looking at some family also and they told us that back in the early 18 hundred’s their was a terrible fever and some of these families graves had dates on them where the mother was the last to go. She buried 11 children and her husband all in about 3 month’s, maybe more. I cried for her because as a mom myself I couldn’t imagine doing what she had to do knowing she was also going to die. Her grave stone, like all the others were small and she had a stillborn in her arms in that casket. I wish I could remember the name of the place and grave yard. I just wanted to share this story.
