A Quick Reference Guide To Wakes, Funerals, And Memorial Services

Wake, Funeral and Memorial Service Defined

Unless you have suffered from the loss of a close relative and were responsible for planning the funeral, it is very possible that you don’t know the different terms used in the funeral industry.

After all, funerals are not a fun topic for casual day-to-day conversation, and why would anyone, unless they suffered a loss in their family, know what different funeral terms actually mean?     Mourners are almost always uncomfortable and embarrassed because they don’t know these terms, even though everyone has heard them many times before.

Set forth below is a quick reference guide to help you.
