For my pastor friends... An interesting commentary:
Cyberbrethren » Banishing the Dead from Their Own Funeral: "Banishing the Dead from Their Own Funeral"
I've found that if you take the lead, the family will let you. Don't let the funeral homes take the lead in logistics or program, even if it might be easier. They aren't anti-church, their just looking out for the bottom line and what is easiest for them. Most funeral directors I have met appreciate it when I have a preferred way of doing things and guide them by it. Their whole business is based upon mitigating discomfort and if you take the lead in this it makes their job easier as they can then focus on flowers, grave sites, traffic, etc.
