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

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. Answered by Classy chick - Wed Oct 29 13:19:50 2008 What are the rules for other drivers when a funeral procession is on the freeway?
Q. The funeral procession was very long and in the right lane. I needed to get over to exit the freeway. I didn't want to be disrespectful and cross through the procession, but I couldn't just stop on the busy freeway and wait for them to pass. What are we supposed to do to show our respect, but remain safe as well. Asked by Vanilla Child - Sun Jan 13 11:31:25 2008 - - 12 Answers - 0 Comments A. Sorry, but you wait. Domedweller and a few others have got it wrong. A funeral procession is the last respect paid to a deceased person. The link below is State law, applies on the Interstate too. Since "headlights on" is commonplace for new vehicles and no one teaches repect anymore this signal is not widely recognized. The "flashing lights" UCAN'TCME refers to are generally purple.
