For many bereaved people, the funeral plays a central role in coping with their deep grief. The lavation will also enable an urn burial and thus a last moment of saying goodbye together – perhaps a first moment of letting go.
When a loved one dies, it is difficult to understand at first. You’ve just had a coffee together, gone for a walk, celebrated a party, laughed, gossiped and cried. And then suddenly there is silence. The funeral creates awareness for many and is a fixed ritual in the grieving process. As with cremation, an urn burial will follow the lavation.
