What to expect at a funeral
Hey basil. My aunt recently died 3 days ago. The funeral's planned on Wednesday, and I've never been to a funeral before. I'm clueless on what will go on, and I'm afraid to ask my mom for details. From what I know, it's going to be a traditional christian funeral. So basil, I'm asking you guys what to expect at a funeral.

I'm laughing at this more than I should.
Leave your technology at home, and wear dark clothes. It's best to simply not say anything.
[quote=xNightAngelx13]A lot of people cared for my aunt, including me. Especially since she died so early. And at the viewing what do they specifically do? Just view the body before the funeral? or is there a small service?[/quote]
My close friends dad died at younger than 60 because of stage 4 cancer. Of course, I stuck with him along with him and my other friends until the day was over. On the other hand, these good for nothing people come here thinking its a social hour or something, made me sick.
[quote=ImaClubYou]Expect no one to care about the dead body if its a viewing. I know no one cared the last time I went to something as depressing as that.
Also, on the actual "almost time to bury the body" part, you should stay quiet, don't wear and bright colors. Black, white, brown, or gray should suffice.[/quote]
