Etiquette
A few simple guidelines to keep in mind.
While funeral traditions have evolved over time, respect, kindness, and good judgment remain the most important guide.
Showing care:
Offer your condolences — A simple “I’m sorry for your loss” is always meaningful. If you can’t attend, a card or message is appreciated.
Dress respectfully — You don’t need to wear all black, but choose modest, subdued attire.
Sign the guestbook — Include your name and relationship so the family can remember your presence.
Show support — Flowers, a donation, or offering help (like meals or errands) can mean a great deal.
Stay in touch — Support is especially meaningful in the weeks and months after the service.
Being mindful:
Keep phones silenced or put away — Avoid distractions during the service.
Be mindful of disruptions — If children may be restless, consider alternative arrangements.
Share memories with care — Avoid stories that may feel inappropriate or insensitive.
Use moderation — Be respectful with food and drink during the gathering.
