Funeral Service FAQs
What Is The Purpose Of A Funeral Service?
- It is the customary way to recognize death and its finality. Funerals are recognized rituals for the living to show respect for the dead and to help survivors begin the grief process. A “closure” of sorts must occur to help survivors adjust to their loss and recognize that a death has occurred. A funeral service provides the opportunity for friends and family to celebrate the life that was lived and allow the healing process to begin. Tippecanoe Memory Gardens offers a wide array of options for you to express the unique way you or your loved one lived life.
What Do Funeral Directors Do?
- Funeral directors are multi-taskers. They are caregivers, administrators, event planners, and embalmers. They make the arrangements for transportation and preparation of the body, complete all necessary paperwork, and implement the choices made by the family regarding the funeral and final disposition of the body. Funeral directors are listeners, advisors and supporters. They have experience assisting the bereaved in coping with death. Funeral directors are trained to answer questions about grief, recognize when a person is having difficulty coping, and recommend sources of professional help. Funeral directors also link survivors with support groups at the funeral home or in the community.
