Some of the benefits of a funeral in the Philippines
· It is a proper, final farewell.
·
It leaves good and beautiful memories of the
person loved.
·
It provides closure; that the person has, in
deed, ‘passed away’.
·
It extends emotional and material comfort to the
bereaved.
·
It satisfies religious, cultural, social and
family obligations.
·
It is ‘catch-up’ for attendees (sharing updates
since the attendees were last together·
It acknowledges favors granted by the departed
or the bereaved, as well.
·
It allows attendees to expand social,
professional and business networks.
·
Sufficient funds helps to create fine memories of a warm, beautiful funeral. But it
is the ‘pulling together’ of the bereaved, their cooperative efforts, which cause
the event to become specially memorable.
· It is noteworthy to mention that provincial and many of the smaller funeral homes in the cities give high value to monies spent on the funeral package. This is a results of competition. Items such as tents, chairs, umbrellas, coffee, videoke and PA systems, the use of viewing facilities up to 40 days after the interment and other add-ons are provided at no additional cost.

‘SG3’ is a young, smart and warp-speed IT tech affiliated with
the Computer Science College of a very old yet much evolved and large
university. He functions as the blog’s administrator.
As ‘SG1’, the author’s collateral benefit from the blog is to keep
Alzheimer’s ‘across the street in the neighbors backyard’. He is learning ‘on the fly’ what he needs to know about blogging. This is why revisions continue to be made on the blog segments.
