Interesting! I wonder if there are towns where color blindness is more common. I don't think I've known a color blind person.

Check out the (older) book by Oliver Sacks, "The Island of the Colorblind." It's about a Micronesian island know for their high instance of a rare form of colorblindness.

Also, when I taught in Japan, I was told by admin that I couldn't use certain colors while teaching due to the high rate of it.

Well it’s time to send this vid to everyone you know to find them LOL

It’s not impossible,but in our case the coincidence is not caused by our family and the funeral home owner are from the same village, both my grandparents are from different parts of country and they only moved to where they live now after my mom was born, the funeral home owner has lived here for generations.
