about. i think that era is over this is the crisis of our time it's a financial problem like any other financial we live in a competitive world it's just cold it's cool it's cool cool more peace to be free but the world is changing the most important commodity futures can be chiefly. the border city or commodity starts march 22nd on d. w. . as for mr dives it does i missed my job means working through data and what dying means to us humans but through this i come to understand so much more about how to think she is. the mom i'm on. the get scheffler is an undertaker

she sends people off on their final journey and offers comfort to the ones they've left behind as the corona pandemic drags on she tries to accomplish this seemingly impossible to be. just strangers in their most difficult hour while staying at a safe distance. candlelight helps create a subdued atmosphere the mosque is a precaution to get scheffler and her coworkers are right to give or prepare the body to be laid out in the casket in germany this is the undertakers task which. has been flown as such long hair amazing isn't it after suffering alzheimer's for years this woman passed on aged 95 in a nursing home in berlin with them full freshener up a bit for her final journey. siren i always washed the body off and together with

family members i. didn't open up my eyes then it's like giving them one final loving careerists or one final loving gesture on. their lips the before they give up on my we clean interest the body. and give them a farewell touch there have been times when the family left behind did so much want to just stand back and provide little assistance. it's always so touching when that happens. but the coronavirus pandemic robbed many people of this opportunity in many cases those left behind were only allowed a final glimpse and then i'm not i'm not one of if she had died awful with covert 19 and of course we would have to take more precautions. then we put on smallpox somewhere not only mosques but also some protective devices. and then we'd have to

take extra care when moving the body. being the primary danger comes from the air that might still be in her lungs that could escape. and then i don't know if. there's really quite a lot to consider them on for this to go off on in march. of the deceased's they've prepared this winter big it says one in 5 had the coronavirus the 4th it's quite rare that we trace the body in undergarments but that's all she had from wearing suits to suck which is yes we've seen everything in the form. of the i often wonder where she's satisfied with her life if you were to ask her now was she happy. might she have done something differently she could decide all over again my insight and current. not long ago to get made

a life changing decision she gave up her position on the board of the media outlets and went into business for herself. safe travels. and i know. that the change came as quite a surprise to bigots family. the 1st thing i did was tell my husband. and his initial reaction was very calm and collected but today looking back he admitted he thought nothing would ever come of it that he thought i'd forget about it in a few weeks like a crazy thought that never lasts. but he was wrong. 6 year old me to seize her mum's profession as a normal job like any other death is no to do in the family. as a lot of my daughter nice but i do she knows i'm an undertaker. and she

also knows the most part what that means that it's not the main topic of conversation at home. it's completely normal just like with any other profession sometimes we talk about it and sometimes we don't it always comes up when she sees a deadline a move that started a little bargain have prescribed. for just then she'll say oh mum's got to come and variants. and now i know the others all my strength the other said all right i know you're only an undertaker for people ok good. when big it was 27 her mother died suddenly without any previous illness she was 60 years old her death and bigots experience with the undertaker back then still affect be a good in her work today that lives and for me if i saw for myself what it was like back then when from one day to the next without any warning you find yourself having to part with someone very close to you. and your. mention of

the most not the time we got run through a process more or less possibly. passive nobody really actually was there to help us. it was all quiet run of the mill and. that time should have been comforting force. and that's why i'm trying to do things differently now. not so much bigot and sorrow started the funeral parlor in the midst of the pandemic a relatively uncomplicated process in germany the fair house or fairy house office custom funeral concepts tailored to individual requirements the 2 women often accompanied the family members for several weeks doing what they can to help them through difficult farewells that's not customary for the business and be a good service as cost a bit more but mourning family member henny car appreciates all he does. can i

get that for you but yes free any costs mother passed away a few months ago after a long illness if you miss this one i think it turned out the beautiful we had it brand. you think it's so beautiful. penny's mother was cremated like most to seize germans any designs of the urn herself. do everything here with some much love and care they really think about how to make this process as bearable as possible how can they bring a little joy to the mourners how can we connect better it's a good feeling. this one's. ok to play serenely. perfect perfect. when it's in orbit or if i weren't such an environmentalist i would have made one last cigarette in there. but i couldn't do that to the environment. and his mother did not die of

covert still even at her farewell the pandemic makes itself felt the big wake won't be taking place for henny it just makes the burden harder to bear and in fact it's . so sad that i have to call all my mom's family and friends before the funeral and tell each and every one of them that we can tug at the cemetery and that we'll all have to wear masks we'll have to postpone that for when it's safe to gather again sometime in the summer i hope that makes me so sad and embrace what bring us closer together and to be able to take someone in your arms and receive comfort yourself it's such a shame to have to miss out on that this is the taj oddo. the funerals to be held the following day. since the mourners want to be able to eat together she packs lunches for everyone. in cafe are at a cafe we could have just reserved a table and taken everyone there it would have been easier because we could have

spent more time together that way but a lot of love has gone into this dance can anybody but not every problem caused by the pandemic can be solved as creatively of the can such simple things as shaking hands or even just reaching out a hand and sometimes i take my hand in both of mine when i see that someone is struggling and i have them really tight and deep in their eyes i miss that i long for the day when that's possible again. but nobody knows when that day will arrive be a good has to take things as they come back to with something her profession has taught her wish to die but that to me my job means working through death and what dying means to assume and this toward for inspection but always true that i come to appreciate so much more about life and i think i'm much more able to enjoy life my and i guess that's leaving spurns a question that's leaving a nuisance but there are so many things about life i couldn't truly grasp until now

the hurt. this truly is not just a profession to me it's a calling. for me to leave. and her life's work begins where another life ends the day has come when his mother is to be buried. now it is today is another corona situation some 50 people want to be that liberian and at the wake of the woods but only around 20 are allowed into the chapel and will open the door i was will have loudspeakers outside and a microphone set up inside so the ones who have to stand outside obviously listening. just let me take a quick look up front to see the command list is there i'm sure must be this issue of distancing rules allow no more than 20 people in the chapel at a time the other mourners will have to live. into the ceremony over loudspeakers and i'm excited it's just about to start and we've had to set up quite a lot in a relatively short time and it's a lot situation so everything that works works and everything that doesn't doesn't

we can't repeat anything. out that's not our. i would say. 789. 2 chairs. chairs i need chairs one civilian set up i'll come down. they had just half an hour to decorate the chapel sarra and to get have some helpers to make sure it all goes without a hitch hennie gets to see the results 1st. sure it looks great doesn't it now will last a few candles so it's even better if it's so wonderful to see how many people have sent flowers it's so incredibly beautiful. in between the speeches music by the top the hose and the beatles blasts through the loudspeakers it's

a memorial service that's not just sad just the way henny wanted it. and you can take 15 leave of a muppet and big it is glad that everyone is happy attention is gone and now i can breathe a sigh of relief and happiness and eventually moved out so well and the feedback was so positive many people said that's exactly how she was in life and she would have loved the service and that's great that's a nice is feedback you could ask for and. be a good chef love undertaker mc friend in need and shining light in times of darkness. we all 5.
