Funeral Outside Our Front Door

The grieving family and friends are gathered around the casket. Food is being given to the family over the casket.
The deceased is in the coffin. Mourners were putting a flower inside the coffin then giving food to the family. Breads, cakes, fruits.
These are the gravesite decorations used here. These are on our porch.
The Orthodox cross is being held and will lead the procession to the gravesite with the coffin.
There was quite a large group. Notice the bags of food they are ready to present.
