Is a funeral a celebration of life ?
Yes, but it is more than that.
Yes, it is for the living, who want the opportunity to talk about and remember their loved-one and to celebrate that life that has now passed.
I think it is also an opportunity to grieve together, to share in that sense of loss, to let our emotions out and to support those most affected in their loss.
So yes, it is a celebration of life, but much more also.
