From Here to There
If a picture is worth a thousand words, what is the real thing
worth? The Grand Canyon, the Eiffel Tower, or Mammoth
Cave are all places that we would like to see. Unless we travel
to get there, we usually never get the opportunity to see the
real thing.
Traveling has come a long way over the last 50 years and is
getting faster every year, allowing us to get around the world in
less than 24 hours. Another aspect of the quickening pace of
travel is the new portability of personal things.This in turn has
for example allowed children to move away from the house they
were born in, and parents the ability to weather the winters in a
much warmer climate.
How many of you currently live where you grew up or own
property in another state? A similar question I get asked a lot
seems to be: what happens if I die when I’m traveling?
That question can have a multitude of answers surrounding
the conditions of the death and involving issues of where, what,
and when, just to name a few.Were you on a cruise and the boat
docked and you never showed up? Did you have a heart attack
climbing a fire tower in Cook’s Forest? Who are you with and
where are they now? Were you with your unit and a roadside
bomb exploded?
Traveling is something that just about everyone does and
dying is something we will all do eventually. Even after you die,
you can still travel, as it happens every day, around the world.
The steps taken usually include a funeral director from the
state where the death has occurred, no matter where you are. From
there, the family usually makes necessary arrangements that
include preparation and transportation of the deceased back home
where services and committal will take place.
Any person acting or licensed as a funeral director in regards
to state or country laws should be able to guide you through the
process that is necessary to get your loved one back home.
No one ever expects anything tragic or accidental to happen
while we travel, but it does happen. In the event that things might
happen, rest assured that we can get you back to your final resting
place. Enjoy your trip and see as much as you can. Our time on
this earth is brief indeed..
