Embalming Corpses and Preparing them for Funeral

I had an old uncle who died very recently, we used to talk about this and when I'd visit he'd play dead for me and I'd take pictures of his bare feet. Yes, I sucked his old toes and came on his soles.

Sadly when he died for real I couldn't make the funeral and although he was embalmed and dressed (in a satin gown, no footwear), the coffin was closed. It's nice for me to remember him and think of his toenails changing colour. I still have the photos. He had size 12 feet.

Crazy isn't it, family secret, nobody knew. Only us.
