Funerals

Check the deceased's will for wishes about their funeral before making decisions on the following:

• where the body should rest before the funeral
• time and place of the funeral
• type of service and who will conduct it
• how much to spend on the funeral
• whether to have flowers or donate to charity instead
• where to donate flowers afterwards
• sending out invitations
• placing a notice in the newspapers

A funeral director will help with these decisions, but you do not have to use one.
