“When selecting music for a service meant to proclaim the hope of eternal life, why include a song that denies the very concept of eternal life in its opening words? …As Christians, our funerals shouldn’t be celebrations of our accomplishments, hobbies, or interests because, as Christians, we aren’t primarily statesmen or sports fans or Parrotheads with a little bit of Jesus dust sprinkled on top.”
“Shylock: I would my daughter were dead at my foot, and the jewels in her ear! would she were hearsed at my foot, and the ducats in her coffin!”

Un funeral es una ceremonia conectada con la disposición final de un cadáver, como un entierro, una inhumación o una cremación con las observancias correspondientes. Las costumbres funerarias comprenden el complejo de creencias y prácticas utilizadas por una cultura para recordar y respetar a los muertos, desde el entierro, hasta varios monumentos, oraciones y rituales realizados en su honor. Las costumbres varían entre culturas y grupos religiosos. Los funerales tienen tanto componentes normativos como legales. Las motivaciones seculares comunes para los funerales incluyen el duelo por el fallecido, celebrar su vida y ofrecer apoyo y simpatía a los deudos; además, los funerales pueden tener aspectos religiosos que tienen como objetivo ayudar al alma del fallecido a alcanzar la otra vida, la resurrección o la reencarnación.
