Death is a part of life. When I was young my parents would bring me to removals (where the body is put on display) so I would begin to understand death. Death is not something people should be protected from.

We’ve become so removed from it in the West. We make phone calls instead to employ the services of strangers to deal with it. It doesn’t seem right, or healthy. IDK.
