MANY years ago in Northern Virginia there were two brothers, surnamed Murphy IIRC; one was an obstetrician and the other was an undertaker. They used to joke that they wished doctors could advertise (a prohibition then very widespread, believe it or not) so they could advertise, "From the womb to the tomb with the Murphy brothers."
The funeral home is still there:
MURPHY FUNERAL HOMES
4510 Wilson Blvd
Arlington, VA 22203
As to "many years ago" that was at least 40 years BP
