A funeral home is a place where the bodies of people who have died are brought and then taken care of for a short while. The workers at the funeral home prepare the body to be buried or for whatever the family of the dead person decides should be done. They also provide any necessary transportation for the body. Sometimes the funeral home is a place where the ceremony for a dead person takes place. The ceremony is called a "funeral."
After the funeral at the funeral home, people drove very slowly in their cars to the cemetery. |
