Family suing Brooklyn funeral home following what they say was service nightmare

black people have so much love and respect for the dead but we can’t stand each other while alive

you can not always determine how things will turn out. some no matter what you do just start turning.. Others are perfectly pristine with nothing done, only refrigeration.

She wasnt embalmed. Period. They dig UP people for criminal autopsy and they are not decomposed.

That place should be shut down permanently!

Please worship the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, THE LORD GOD and try not to worry too much about the differences between the different religions and denominations, try to think about the similarities and the things they may have in common more than the differences. Daily prayer is a fundamental part that many people do not practice although it is encouraged

"CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, LORD GOD,  I beg you to never force me to worship any false god or object and I ask you for forgiveness for my sins and immorality. Thank you for everything. Amen."

Please pray this now, pray the words as you read them if you cannot look and remember them

People of color, make sure your love one is properly cared for with dignity and respect. Pick a funeral home that can give you the service you request. One of the most sacred things, is closure and the final viewing.

Next time use a Black Funeral Director.

Omggg😭😭😭😭😭

Protect our beautiful black women

How did she die?

Grace Funeral home in Brooklyn did a great job for my husband. His make up and hair was done perfectly and they let me come in and view the body a day before the funeral so I can approve their work.

Lmfao

This is weird...you show two brief video clips of a man twice alluding that this is the person at the funeral home you interviewed ...yet the person at the funeral home you actually interviewed was clearly a black women ( which you could tell clearly by the audio)...why? very misleading.

That’s a damn shame

She was beautiful ❤️ Fly high princess 🕊️

Forgiveness??? What you crying for? She doesn't want your tears. This is awful! No way she was treated with care, and they followed protocol involving a deceased body. Sounds like she wasn't embalmed at all. This makes me wonder, how many others. Sounds like fraud to me.

Smh

Sue

Sort for your loss..
Sorry for how your daughter was treated ❤❤❤

They didnt do her hair dress dirty tgis was just sad

My God, horrible

How terrible! They are already dealing with the loss of your family member and not to be able to do it properly because of the neglect of the funeral home is just sad! Sending the family lots of hugs and prayers. I'm very sorry for your loss 🙏❤️

Very very very sorry....

Omg! How terrible to do a loved one that way! She was young too....

Protest!!!

News audio person had one job, fired!

I'm Shacking my head.

The body don’t lie ! Go to our own always !

if you want to make an omelet you have to break a few eggs.

Smh. My sister was held for weeks after a brutal suicide. She looked just like herself at the funeral. This is messed up. But as far as I know there aren't many laws in place for dead people. They may be able to get funeral costs back in small claims court. RIP to the young lady

What a waste of punani

Always suing for something

Disgusting.😡

Omg sue

they flew my relative in thousands of miles and buried him 2 weeks after death, he looked better dead than he did alive, so I know its possible to go a long time and still look good

I’m so shocked and saddened to hear this. McManus has been a staple in Brooklyn since I was a child. They should know how to treat the deceased. Unforgivable!!!

Funeral director of 20 years here. It's becoming a common practice for the director to just bring the body to the service and then leave. I've always considered that highly unprofessional, you're the director, you stay with the family who hired you.

And most likely the funeral home dragged their feet on picking up the body and dragged their feet on embalming out of sheer laziness. Happens a lot. They probably left the body in the prep room all weekend thinking they were going to get somebody to come in and then nobody embalmed.

Not sure what they expected after 2 weeks - however the funeral home should have told the family that if they wanted an open casket there's no way that it could be that far after the date of death. 3 days is usually about the maximum after death for an open viewing. The funeral home should have refused the request knowing it wasn't feasible.

Please fix the sound on this story. Kept going in and out

Horrible 😥

Whattttttt??!!!! This is beyond sad😢😢😢

Oh my god that’s the worst thing I ever heard of the poor lady that passed and no respect for this lady it’s so horrible and horrific I pray 🙏🏾 for the mom and family and the way they were treated so so so disrespectful and disgusting 🤢 behavior and that is so so heartbreaking this made me cry it’s the worst thing in the world 🌎 to lost a love ❤️ one never mind a young daughter for the mom the lost is heartbreaking 💔 beyond belief, this place should be closed down for this and no apology or return of the moms money 💴 for a dis respectable cruel horrible disrespectful way the body was mistreated and handled of a love ❤️ one and someone who’s a person in this world a loved person that should of been giving DIGNITY shame on the people at this furneal home just so so horrible and horrific behavior and lack of compassion is a crime of humanity and legal negligence in the worst possible way they have one service to provide and it should be provided with respect love and dignity .
