The Urban Dictionary of riggs funeral home obituaries
One of my favorite obituaries of 2018 was a riggs funeral home obituary. It was written by a local newspaper and included the name of the deceased and the date of death. I thought it was a wonderful way to remember a person who made a difference in so many lives and was a friend to so many, but it brought a tear to my eye. It brought back the pain of losing a loved one and it offered a glimpse into how they were loved by so many.
I didn’t know my father or his family, I didn’t know how much of an impact they had on my life, but I do know the impact he had on so many lives. I know that many people know him because of the way he treated people. I know that people I knew were afraid of him, and I know that he took a lot of shit at times. But he was loved by so many.
I’m glad I know him and hope that I get to see him again. But I also know that the person I was at that funeral may have been the last person who knew him. I think that if his friends had come to see him, they would have been scared to death. The people who knew him, who knew him before he became so strange, they would have been scared to death of him. They would have had a hard time understanding his weird, crazy, and terrifying behavior.
That’s something someone with a lot of experience dealing with death and dealing with the aftermath of death might have said to yourself when you were starting to have a rough time. It’s hard to know that your life doesn’t have any purpose apart from surviving. But after a while, you realize that you have to take that “meaning” out of it. You know that you can no longer give yourself a reason to live. You have to just let go and let it go.
The other day I was reading some of the comments on my blog post on the death of a friend. The most common ones were, “I wish I had done more” or “I wish I would have known…” or “I wish I would have done this differently,” or ”I wish I could have stopped him.
I always find it interesting when people say that they wish they didnt know because they would have ended up in the same place sooner or later. I can hear the voice of the person saying, “I wish I would have known sooner.” But it’s really that people do know when they should know and don’t know, that’s the real problem.
Like most people, we all know when we should know but we all don’t know when we should tell someone. When you have someone close to you who you can talk to about situations that affect you, you want to be able to tell them as soon as possible. But you also don’t want to let them down so you tell them as much as you can when they should know, but not too much.
So, if you’re the type of person who needs to know, and you haven’t told anyone, it’s hard to say who should know and who should not. There are just too many variables with every situation that could affect someone. For example, if someone is dying and you are the only person around, you may not want to tell them. Or if you’re the only person in a room, it wouldn’t seem like you should be telling them.
We like to make our obituaries as easy to read as possible so we can get to the core information ourselves. That being said, we’ve decided to not include any of the funeral home’s Facebook or Twitter pages. It makes it a bit too hard for visitors to view all the information, so we’ve decided to not include these pages.
riggs is a local funeral home, founded in 1911. It currently has seven locations in the Chicago area. It’s one of the oldest and largest funeral homes in the city, if not the country. It just celebrated its 160th birthday, and I think we can guess that is something to celebrate. After all, the last time I was in a funeral home, it was a place that was very much like the one in my hometown, just in another location.
