Funeral

mourning - grealt, CC0

After a case of death, the deceased must be transferred by a funeral service, within a schort period of time.

A funeral is painful for the bereaved. The ceremony of a funeral can be different as regards burial style, the design of the funeral as well as the wishes of the deceased and the family. A funeral can be an earth, fire, or burial at sea. The undertaker can indicate possibilities for this purpose, to take account of the personal wishes of so.

Because you might be asked to say something about the deceased on the day of burial, it may make sense to write down a memory of that person.
