1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: Don't answer the phone, Elvis durand the Elvis durand phone tappen.

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 2: All right, I guess today's phone tap is very self explanatory.

3
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 2: But let me give you just a little bit of background.

4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,879
Speaker 2: Danielle plays the wife of a dead guy. She's the

5
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,680
Speaker 2: widow and she's grieving over the loss of her husband,

6
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 2: but she has one last request for the funeral home.

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 2: Let's listen in.

8
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,160
Speaker 3: Funeral, Yes, Hi, I have a couple of questions about

9
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 3: possibly having a funeral at your funeral home. My husband

10
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 3: actually passed away yesterday and I actually have a very

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 3: odd request, and people have been telling me that I'm crazy,

12
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 3: But is there a way that before the viewing of

13
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 3: the body, you could cut my husband's unit off and

14
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 3: I can take it home with me?

15
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 4: Can you hold on one moment? Sure?

16
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 3: Thanks?

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 4: Did I hear that?

18
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: Yeah?

19
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 3: Hi, I actually called a few minutes ago, and this

20
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 3: really nice woman with help me. My husband had passed

21
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 3: away yesterday. I called about twenty different funeral homes just

22
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 3: to ask if it was possible, before the viewing of

23
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 3: my husband's body, if I could cut my husband's unit

24
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 3: off and I can take it home with me. Okay,

25
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 3: my husband was only thirty nine years old, and he

26
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 3: died of a heart attack. And it's kind of like

27
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 3: the only thing I have left. Okay, if I was

28
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 3: to come in and do it myself, and I didn't

29
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 3: know how I could do that, whether I'd have to

30
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 3: bring in a baggie with me, whether it would need

31
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 3: to be put in formaldehyde, how I would be able

32
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 3: to cut it off, what looks.

33
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 4: Well if it's at the time, as long as it's

34
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 4: only time we embomb him, right then it'll be bombed,

35
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 4: so you wouldn't need distort it from mouth to tacks.

36
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 3: But has this ever been done? Has anyone ever happened?

37
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 3: Do you understand, though, why this is something that I'd

38
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 3: want done?

39
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 4: I can understand.

40
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 3: I mean I don't. I don't know what else to do,

41
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 3: what else to save. And I haven't even told my

42
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 3: family because I know they're going to think I'm crazy.

43
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 4: So what is it? You wouldn't want to tell them?

44
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 4: If you're going to do this, you wouldn't want to,

45
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 4: you know, involve everybody.

46
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 3: And I figured that since the body is usually fully

47
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 3: clothed and it's it's when it's viewed, nobody would know.

48
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 4: Nobody would tell her.

49
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 3: When it's embombed. Does that mean that it would remain

50
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 3: in a stiff position, it would be sick?

51
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it would remain, It would remain preserved.

52
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 3: Can I take it out or is it something that

53
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 3: I need to keep in a bag?

54
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 4: I never thought about about storing anything. I would imagine

55
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 4: you would need to keep that in a some kind

56
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 4: of container. Right. You know who would be able to

57
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 4: tell you? Would be our embomber? Oh, he would our

58
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 4: Obama happens to be a female.

59
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: Oh?

60
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 3: She is she around? Is it possible for that? I

61
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 3: should talk to her.

62
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 4: Hold on a minute. Let me see if I can

63
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 4: get her on a two way call it.

64
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 3: Thank you very much?

65
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 4: Hello Gary? All right? Can you hear her?

66
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 2: Hi?

67
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 3: Hi, Hi Jerry. My name is Mary Anne. I was

68
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 3: explaining to the gentleman that since you were the embomber,

69
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 3: that you might be able to answer some questions that

70
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 3: I have.

71
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: What kind of question? Have not help?

72
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: I had actually asked him if it was possible to

73
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 3: cut my husband's unit off and save it. And it's

74
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 3: kind of like the only thing I have left? Is

75
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 3: this something that I would need formaldehyde for it?

76
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: If I wanted to keep it, you would have to

77
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: have some type of a solution that would be a preservative.

78
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: What would just keep it in?

79
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 3: I didn't know if I could keep it in a

80
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 3: plastic bag.

81
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 1: If I needed to keep it in a jar, you

82
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 1: would probably have to have a field container.

83
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 4: He's also wanting if it could be used, if you know,

84
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 4: if it could be if it would be usable, and

85
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 4: that's why we called you.

86
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: I would highly doubt it.

87
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 3: I mean because he had said that if it was embalmed,

88
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 3: it would always be stiff.

89
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: No, because it's not attached to anything, and I would

90
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: I would not recommend it because you would have to

91
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: use some type of a conservative solution, and that's not

92
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: something you would want to have the immediate contact with.

93
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 3: Is it something that you could mount? Maybe because you

94
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: know how some times they stuffed animals after.

95
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 1: You wouldn't see that's something you would have to get

96
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: a tax to germist. Okay, now that might be a

97
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: possibility that attack the germists want to step this point.

98
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 3: Is it something I can use if they did that, ma'am.

99
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, And then I that's a question I

100
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: can't answer.

101
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 3: And then the taxidermists could stuff it. Then could I

102
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 3: mount it?

103
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 1: I would imagine. So, but those questions the taxi the

104
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: ermists would have to address because they could tell you

105
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: whether or not they would do it, could do it,

106
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: or would be willing to do it, and then they

107
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: could tell you what their preservation procedures would be after

108
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: they've done whatever they're going to do.

109
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: And do you, I mean, is this something you would do?

110
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 3: Would you save your husband?

111
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: I'd keep my memories.

112
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 3: You just keep your memory.

113
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: I keep my memories and move.

114
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 4: On, all right.

115
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 3: All right, I think I'm gonna I'm gonna rethink think

116
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 3: it because people keep telling me that I'm crazy. So

117
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 3: I'm going to talk to my sister about it and

118
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 3: make my decision and then, you know, figure out what

119
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 3: to do. But I want to thank you for your

120
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 3: health because you've been very.

121
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,919
Speaker 1: Helpful, no problem, and you take care and I wish you.

122
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Take care, all right, I'm the
