Joe is a proud director of Corrigan and Sons Funeral Directors, Dublin; born into the undertaking business, the fourth generation to run the company. I started training in embalming at the Midlands Embalming School.
To be a good embalmer or funeral director, I believe that temperament is the key, coupled with training and an ability to understand grief and the stages one goes through-loss, denial, acceptance.
People nowadays are more anxious than ever before about what death looks like, so, as an embalmer, you need to be sensitive to how a person looked in life. There’s a code of ethics around embalming which involves confidentiality and respect for the dead. I believe that we embalmers can contribute a lot in easing such grief and in helping people move on.
