We are expecting quite a bit of snow today and I have two funerals. It is always a tough call to make when it comes to cancelling a funeral. I have had to do it twice in my career. One time I had to close a visitation and send people home because it was getting too bad. It was 3:00pm and we still had visitation that night. I drove back to the funeral home after dinner to see if anyone would show up and only one person did and he came on a snowmobile. (You might be a redneck if....) The second time was on December 23 of 2004, which I hated to do because we ended up having the service the next day on Christmas Eve.
So everyone say a prayer that I can get these two families taken care of today.
