When a loved one passes away, you don't want to simply bury them, but rather remember them lovingly and in the company of their relatives and acquaintances.The funeral service is the memorial ceremony before the burial itself and can be religious or secular. At the center of the funeral service is the remembrance of the deceased, with stations of life, his character and achievements, but also how life continues after this loss. Often, the send-off is punctuated by photos, music, candles, flowers and ornaments.
An independent funeral speaker or a speaker from the circle of relatives leads the ceremony.
