Adjectivefuneral (not comparable) Nounfuneral (plural funerals)
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A funeral is a ceremony for celebrating, sanctifying, or remembering the life of a deceased person. 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 honor. 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. Funerary art is art produced in connection with burials, including many kinds of tombs, and objects specially made for burial with a corpse. 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

I live near several funeral homes, and often see the workers outside, shoveling in their formal attire, or directing cars. My heart sinks whenever I drive by and there is a service. I have always tried to imagine what it must be like to be inside one of these people, but cannot. Does anyone have any insight? Asked by alyandbud - Sun Jan 11 09:39:37 2009 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. I am a funeral director and for most directors I know find it very hard and often times we cry along with the families. I live in a small community and I know most of the families in our community. So every time we get a call my stomach drops to hear the name. However, I feel that my job is needed and I find it very rewarding to help our families get through the rough period in their lifes. We also have the unique ability to get to know nearly all of the community and be close to them. Hope this helps! God Bless!

Q. My cousin is in the Marines and is stationed in California, our grandfather died today and he needs to fly from Ontario California to Houston Texas for a Friday or Saturday funeral, he's newly married and a new father so funds are a little slim. Can anyone tell me the best place on the net to find airline tickets that wont completely break the bank for him. They really don't pay those guys much. Asked by Happy 2 B Me - Thu May 1 00:43:05 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. His best bet, other than flying space-available as already noted, is to call around to the various airlines and inquire about bereavement fares. Many airlines offer discounts on last-minute tickets for funerals and the like -- those are typically better deals than what can be found online, but if an airline offers them, it's usually over the phone rather than online.
