I didn’t pick the profession, it picked me. From the age of 9, I just knew that I wanted to be an undertaker. I don’t know why, I just know that from being a youngster, I used to feel other people’s sadness. At 15, my school careers advisor told me that I may as well want to be an astronaut as I would have no chance of becoming either - funerals and the moon were for men.
