I’m planning on visiting my older brother in SLC next month (for his 30th birthday); I’d like to see that mummifying business as a side trip. And FYI, non-LDS, LDS don’t actually mummify their dead.

Summum isn’t a business, it’s a religion. They have a pyramid in an industrial area off of Beck Street.LDS dead are embalmed like anyone else. Usually buried wearing white clothes, a white bonnet and a green apron. Cremation is seriously frowned upon among the LDS.

I don’t think there is much difference between a sausage and a mummy.
