Burials
The act of burying the dead is among the unique traits that separate human beings from other living creatures. Burials are one of the most favored methods of dealing with the body of the deceased.
The Burial Process
Burying the dead is something that needs to be planned amid a difficult situation. Here are some of the necessary things a person will go through when dealing with the burial of a loved one.
Choosing the burial location
It is best if a burial plot is already prepared beforehand. There are life insurance policies that offer people a way to plan these things. However, if otherwise, you will have to coordinate with the funeral home to help you find a burial plot for the deceased.
Providing confirmation for burial
Alongside searching for a burial plot is providing the funeral home and the cemetery confirmation about the burial. Included in this form is the specific instructions on how to meet any cultural or religious observance during burial.
The internment
Upon the date of internment, the casket is taken to the cemetery, and the instructed procedure of burial is observed. A small ceremony may be conducted before lowering the casket.
After the burial
After the internment, the site is then re-turfed and beautified. A headstone or plaque is placed over the burial plot and is maintained by the cemetery management.
