Undertakers Kenneth McKenzie and Todd Harra provided this artwork depicting one of the stories featured in their book, Mortuary Confidential. According to the account, an undertaker new to the neighborhood receives a bereavement turkey on Thanksgiving from a helpful neighbor who thinks there has been a death at the house.
Much to the neighbor's chagrin, the undertaker informs her that she is on call, hence the hearse in front of the house. Adding to the confusion, the undertaker's boyfriend, a police officer, and their friend, a CSI, are both on call and over for dinner as well. More illustrations at wtoddharra.com.
