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

Answered by Pill.Poppin.Animal - Wed Aug 12 18:58:17 2009 How do funeral homes market their services? Q. I'm a writer and I'd like to target funeral homes for my writing services, but I'm unclear as to their marketing efforts. I know that a funeral home is often associated with a particular cemetery, and receives referrals from people who've purchased plots in that cemetery. I also know that funeral homes do a great deal of Yellow Pages advertising, and likely have Web sites. Are there any other types of marketing communications they do? Do they send out flyers or direct mail? Thanks very much. Asked by canyoubelievethisworld - Mon Mar 2 12:39:35 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A.

Q. I am thinking I want to give as little money as possible to the funeral home. I am considering cremation, with my ashes in a plastic bag, being spread out in the back yard or something. Maybe a small service in the house. I don't want my family to get "robbed" like the local funeral home did when my Dad died. It seemed like they were like car salesmen, trying to add extras we really didn't need or want. Asked by Josephus - Thu Jun 18 05:28:53 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A.
