What is a family undertaker?

A family undertaker is a professional mortician who works in a funeral home that has been operated by his family. The funeral home is usually defined by the family name.

An undertaker works in the funeral management industry, and he focuses on a variety of tasks, including taking care of a dead body for the client's planned funeral rites. These tasks include things such as embalming, cremation and burial. The embalming process varies depending on what type of funeral the professionals are planning for, though they commonly dress and put cosmetics on the deceased to make them presentable for the family.
