In this episode of "Death And," mortician and funeral director Victor M. Sweeney takes the mic solo to explore the theme of "Death and Charity." Victor reflects on what charity—rooted in the Latin "caritas," meaning love—really looks like in the context of his work as a funeral director and undertaker. Through personal stories, like burning his hand helping at a funeral lunch and sharing time with grieving families, he illustrates how acts of charity, big and small, connect the living and the dead. Victor delves into the importance of both accepting and giving charity, even when it feels uncomfortable, and how those exchanges create a feedback loop of love and kindness. He answers listener questions about grave goods, green burials, and discusses being charitable to those we may not like.
