Adjectivefuneral (not comparable) Positive funeral Superlative none (absolute) From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A funeral is a ceremony marking a person's death. Funerary customs comprise the complex of beliefs and practices used by a culture to remember the dead, from the funeral itself, to various monuments, prayers, and rituals undertaken in their honour. These customs vary widely between cultures, and between religious affiliations within cultures. In some cultures the dead are venerated; this is commonly called ancestor worship. The word funeral comes from the Latin funus, which had a variety of meanings, including the corpse and the funerary rites themselves. Funeral rites are as old as the human culture itself, predating modern homo sapiens, to at least 300,000 years ago. For example, in the Shanidar cave in Iraq, in Pontnewydd Cave in Wales and other sites across Europe and the Near East, Neanderthal skeletons have been discovered with a characteristic layer of pollen, which suggests that Neanderthals buried the dead with gifts of flowers. This has been interpreted as suggesting that Neanderthals believed in an afterlife. From Wikipedia under the

What is the meaning of wearing black at a funeral? Q. My grandmother is dying and I asked my mother if it would be ok if I wore white to her funeral and she said that you don't wear white to a funeral. She doesn't know that you can wear white to a funeral. I know that you can wear white, but I can't remember what it means. Asked by Emerald S - Wed Oct 29 13:13:32 2008 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments A. White is to be viewed as pure, virginal, while black is to be viewed as in mourning. The true sense is you are not suppose to notice the clothes on the person in mourning just that they are not caring what they are wearing only that they are mourning the passing of a loved one. In the case of the wedding you should only wear white if you are the bride. In the case of the funeral wearing white is disrespectful.

What education is needed for someone to enter the field of funeral arrangements? I am somewhat interested in the field and would like some direction. Asked by Paul R. - Wed May 10 22:44:30 2006 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. I think you need to check out the particulars for where you live. In my state, there are no funeral assistants. There are apprentices, but apprentices have apprentice licenses, and funeral directors have funeral director licenses. Some states have different licensees for embalmers and directors, but in my state funeral directors embalm. You could simply call a funeral home and ask if you could come in and talk to a funeral director. I think most places would be willing to sit down and talk to you. I talk to one or two interested people a year, and I always enjoy it. Good luck! Answered by bamfchyck - Thu May 11 09:57:05 2006 What kind of cookies should I bring to a funeral?
