minus-square@can@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink7•1 year agoAre people embalming less because cremation is increasing in popularity?
minus-square@ImplyingImplications@lemmy.calinkfedilink13•edit-21 year agoYes. The places I worked had about 80% of clients choosing cremation. I assume it’s mostly a cost decision. Cremation does not require a casket or a cemetery plot, which are two very expensive items.
