‘I would much rather bury little old ladies’: Funeral directors pushing for end to Baltimore violence, by: Elizabeth Worthington, WMAR2News.com, August 25, 2023
When John Williams looks at homicide rates in Baltimore, he doesn’t see numbers, he sees faces.
“I don’t think you understand what it’s like to see the pain on somebody’s face as they have to choose what color casket they’re gonna get, to choose what outfit they’re gonna wear. I’ve heard screams that would pierce your soul,” Williams, funeral director, said.
So when he sees homicide numbers going down this year, even by a few dozen, he knows that’s a few dozen fewer families entering his funeral home.
“I would much rather bury little old ladies, World War II veterans, and just lay them peacefully to rest, as opposed to hearing mothers cry,” Williams said.
That’s why he didn’t hesitate when a friend in the funeral industry asked him to get behind his idea.
