Welcome to Modern Morticia!
Over half of the funeral directors in the United States today are women. I believe this gender shift has provoked a compassionate change in the industry. Funerals are big events -- they're a personalized celebration of someone's life. They don't necessarily have to be depressing. From Alexander McQueen's swanky service to the fictional Star Trek funeral in the film "Undertaking Betty," today's funerals are not all about wearing head-to-toe black and droning organ music.
MM will post funeral fashions, crazy events, different customs and new techniques in death care services.
