The funeral and other death rituals across various cultures and religions play not only critical roles in spirituality for the deceased but also play key roles in mental and emotional adjustment to the loss for the family and living. Funerals for many help them acknowledge the loss and receive support and love from family and friends. This is critical in adjustment. Although it is the first step in a long journey, it does help individuals find some type of recognition of the loss itself.
