Funeral
home: establishment where funerals are arranged
Synonyms: funeral chapel, funeral church, funeral parlor, funeral
residence, undertaker's establishment.
A funeral is a ceremony marking a person's death. Funerary customs
comprise the complex of beliefs and practices used by a culture
to remember the dead, from the funeral itself, to various monuments,
prayers, and rituals undertaken in their honor. These customs
vary widely between cultures, and between religious affiliations
within cultures. In some cultures the dead are worshipped; this
is commonly called ancestor worship. The word comes from the Latin
funus, which had a variety of meanings, including the corpse and
the funerary rites themselves.
Funeral
rites are as old as the human race itself. In the Shanidar cave
in Iraq, Neandertal skeletons have been discovered with a characteristic
layer of pollen, which suggests that Neandertals buried the dead
with gifts of flowers. This has been interpreted as suggesting
that Neandertals believed in an afterlife, and in any case were
aware of their own mortality and were capable of mourning.
Services
Funeral
homes arrange services in accordance with the wishes of families
and the deceased.
The funeral home often takes care of the necessary paperwork,
permits, and other details,
such as making arrangements with the cemetery, and providing obituaries
to the news media.
When the
deceased are brought to the funeral home, they are usually embalmed
to delay decomposition.
The embalming procedure involves removal of blood from the corpse
and the use of makeup to make corpse look more lifelike.
If the deceased was disfigured from an accident or illness, the
embalmer can sometimes perform restorative services to
make the corpse presentable for an open casket service. If the
embalmer is unable, or if the family requests otherwise,
the funeral home can perform a closed casket service.
The funeral
home often sets aside one or more large areas for families to
gather at a wake.
This area contains a space to display the deceased in their casket
for visitors to pay their respects.
Funeral services and memorial services may also take place at
the funeral home. Funeral homes also
offer prearrangement services for those who wish to prepare their
own funeral services before death.
Because
of the increasing popularity of cremation, there are more funeral
homes with crematoriums.
Funeral homes without facilities on-site often contract the work
out to other firms.
Some funeral
homes are family owned and operated. Others are part of larger
corporations;
however, unlike those in other industries, these corporations
often act anonymously to appear
as if they are family owned.
