Funeral Rites
The funeral is the final rite of passage being
seen as the final stage in a period of transition following death
and as a climax of days of preparation by the bereaved. The funeral
serves to acknowledge formally the occurrence of the death with
family and friends saying their final farewell to a loved one. In
addition, it provides an opportunity for communal support for those
left behind.
Whilst the majority of funerals take place in
the context of a religious service, opportunities also exist for
ceremonies to be conducted devoid of any religious character.

and professional manner, Chelmsford Star Co-operative Funeral Services
