Common Etiquettes to Follow In Catholic Funerals

Common Funeral Etiquette Questions  When should I visit?

•

As soon as you get the news of a friend or someone related to you passing away, the first reaction should be to call the family and offer your condolences.

•

The second step is obviously visiting the family as soon as possible.

•

This setting would give you more comfort as well as the family of the deceased rather than reaching funeral home directly.
