THE BASICS OF TRADITIONAL FUNERAL SERVICES
These services typically include a visitation, a service, and a commitment service. The visitation allows family and friends to view the deceased and provide an opportunity to grieve. The traditional burial service is a time of affirmation of a life lived, providing time for religious and spiritual recognition. Lastly, the committal service is the actual burial or cremation and serves as a symbolic demonstration that the relationship has ended, and it is necessary to say goodbye and turn to the future.
COMPONENTS OF A TRADITIONAL FUNERAL SERVICE
A traditional funeral service typically includes several components that are designed to honor and celebrate the life of the deceased, and provide closure and comfort for family and friends. These components include:
- Visitation: A time for family and friends to view the deceased, grieve and express their emotions. The visitation is often held at the funeral home or mortuary, and can be open or closed, depending on the family's preferences. During the visitation, friends and family members may offer condolences to the bereaved and share memories and stories about the deceased.
- Funeral Service: A time of affirmation of a life lived, providing a time for religious and spiritual recognition. The service can be held at a variety of venues, including the funeral home, a church, or other meaningful location. This may include religious or spiritual rituals, eulogies, and readings.
- Committal Service: The actual burial or cremation. This service can be held at a cemetery or crematory and may include prayers, music, and a final farewell to the deceased.
- Grief Support: The funeral home staff can offer support and guidance to the family during the planning process and after the funeral service, providing resources and information on grief support groups and counseling services.
By understanding the different components of a traditional funeral service, families can make informed decisions about how best to honor and remember their loved one, and create a meaningful and fitting tribute that provides closure and comfort for all involved.
