How to handle a funeral?

I don't know where you come from, because different regions have different customs. But the general thread is similar, as follows:

1, consult the local funeral home, record the hotline for receiving the remains, and find out what needs to be prepared for the funeral, such as shroud, incense sticks, coffins, etc. Also, contact the local cemetery in time.

2. Once the relatives are gone, immediately help to wipe the body, put on the shroud, and then immediately contact the funeral home to take the body to the funeral home for preservation, and then decorate the mourning hall at home (the funeral home provides related services and funeral supplies). When the child wakes up, he will inform his relatives and friends to come home to mourn.

The family will also discuss when the funeral will be held. Generally speaking, most funerals in China span three to five days, which is odd.

4. On the third day, after the funeral farewell ceremony, cremation will be arranged after the settlement formalities in the funeral home. During this time, if the family wants to make their loved ones go more lively, they can also ask the band to play.

The ashes can be stored in the funeral home or buried on auspicious days.

The above is the funeral process in most parts of China. I hope it helps you.
