Speaker 1 (00:26):
I've never heard.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Hey, hey, we're going through a little something. We're going
through a little something, all right, land casket? Can you
loan your casket to get on my feet? Okay, let's
go get.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Hello. Hello, I'm trying to reach Vicky vi. Hey, Vicky,
how you doing? Are you? Are you the niece of
uh uh? I think it's your aunt? Yes? Okay, and
you know your aunt? That's the way. How many how
many years ago your passed?
Speaker 4 (01:02):
It was about five years ago?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Okay, listen, I'm over here at the funeral home. My my,
my sister just passed away, and they gave me your
phone number. Did you guys? We're going through a little
bit of a situation here, did you guys? Aren't have
you know? Your aunt was a heavyset woman? Is that right? Yes?
She was? Okay, Now they had to did they have
(01:26):
to put her in a in a did they have
a build a special casket for her? Yeah, okay, that's
what we're kind of going through with my sister. We
ordered a special casket for for for my sister, and
I'm assuming this is the same thing that you guys
went through. I called several of her children, but I
(01:46):
wasn't able to get in touch with anybody. But the
funeral home actually had your name on file as well,
so they gave me your number where I would be
able to talk to you. Is that is that? Okay?
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Yeah, that's okay, you can speak to me. But you
know what seems to be a problem.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Well, listen, we the funeral is actually in two days, okay,
and we ordered one of those special caskets, but it
doesn't look like it's going to be in for another week.
So you know, it's almost like we're gonna we're gonna
we're not gonna have a casket for her, you know,
for the funeral. And you know, like I said, the
(02:21):
funeral home told us about you know that you guys
were the last ones that ordered a casket of that size,
and you know, me and the rest of the family
has been you know, we've been trying to figure out
what to do and what to do. Do you think
it's any way possible we can borrow the casket that
your Aim is in, and then when the casket comes
(02:42):
in that we ordered, we can put her in that
casket and put her back down to rest like she's
always been. Do you think that's right? Hello?
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Hello, if you repeat yourself, what exactly are you asking me?
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Well, what I'm saying is, do you think we can
bar your Aim casket? Because you know, the funerals in
two days and the casket is not going to be
in in order for us to be to bury her
in a in a casket for you know, to accommodate
her size. That's what I'm asking.
Speaker 4 (03:15):

who is this?
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Okay? No, my name is Larry, Like I said, My
name is Larry. I got you, I got you guys.
Like I said, I tried to call some of her kids,
but nobody ever picked up When I called, had her
niece's number on file to you. You are her niece, Vicky, right, Yes,
I am. Okay, Well, that's what I'm saying. Do you
think that maybe you can talk to the children and
(03:41):
see if we can maybe use that particular casket.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
Oh okay, wait a minute, what the talking about this?
First of all, who is this you? You gotta be
losing your mind if you think I'm gonna let you
dig up mi Ami for just to bury your notice.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
Yeah, but I understand where you're coming from. But what
I'm trying to say is that we don't have a
casket big enough, and they would they let us know
that you guys were the last ones that had a
casket that you know.
