Funerals Help Support Surviving Family Members: Funerals offer the opportunity for friends, relatives, co-workers, and neighbors to visit the family and provide support. Although cards and emails are certainly welcome, a personal visit can help family members get through a very difficult time.
Funerals Provide A Safe Place To Express Pain: During a funeral, everyone is upset and emotional. Mourners can feel free to
express their emotions without worrying that anyone will be critical of their behavior. When there is no funeral, it can be hard for people to find a place in which they can feel comfortable crying or expressing anger.
Funerals Offer The Chance To Say Goodbye: Funerals help people come to terms with the fact that a friend or family member has died and offer the opportunity to say goodbye in a very personal way.
Funerals Provide The Opportunity To Remember And Honor A Special Person: During the visitation, funeral, and wake, mourners celebrate the person’s life and share stories. Sharing memories not only honors the deceased, but also helps mourners feel supported and united in their grief. Without this ritual, mourners may feel as if they are alone in their grief. The staff at Adzima Funeral Home can help you write a meaningful eulogy or obituary that will honor the life of your loved one.
Funerals Help Provide Closure: A funeral is the final ritual in a person’s life. Although loved ones will continue to mourn the deceased long after the funeral, the ritual signifies that life must continue despite the loss of a family member or friend.
