"A funeral is for those who are living. It is a celebration of the life of a loved one who has died. Everyone who has been touched by the life of the deceased needs the opportunity to share in that celebration. They need the chance to say goodbye. While enabling us to say goodbye funerals also fulfill other important needs. They recognize the life of the deceased person, can strengthen the family ties and responsibilities, reinforce beliefs about life and death, express their emotions and encourage them as they prepare for the future."
