More About Funerals

Long ago, people had funerals in many ways. Some would bury their dead in the ground. Others would put them in caves or by rivers. Each place had its own way to show love.

Funerals help us every day. When someone we love is gone, we feel sad. Funerals let us talk about our feelings. They help us heal and feel better.

In the future, funerals may change. Some people might want a big party. Others may want a quiet time. What matters is that we remember the ones we love.
