RIP was about the funeral company Vingerhoets. This business is losing its paterfamilias and boss. The widow Victorine Vingerhoets and her nephew, Willie Haezevoets, who live at home, have to take over the business and keep it going. Willie is patronized as a son and doesn't feel like going through life as an undertaker because he is desperately looking for a wife. The input of friend of the house Raymond van Derre (also known as Raymondke) often ensured that things never went the way they should..
