There exists an extremely painful moment in life for anyone, which corresponds to the loss of a loved one. In addition to the sense of emptiness, despair, and the pain that often feels suffocating, there is the added stress of all the bureaucratic procedures and obligatory tasks that need to be carried out.
In this circumstance, the help of an experienced and professional funeral agency can alleviate the organizational and managerial burden, as well as provide the emotional support necessary to cope with grief.
In this article, we aim to analyze the various services offered by these companies, noting that often, depending on the area, the range of options may vary. In a metropolis like Milan, compared to a smaller reality, these agencies generally offer a wider array of possibilities: for instance, some of the funeral homes in San Siro not only guarantee a comprehensive and tailored service to families but also provide, upon request, a funeral home, personalized rituals for every religion, with specific spiritual practices even for less common faiths, pet funerals, and more.
Main Services
Funeral homes across Italy, including the funeral services in San Siro, ensure that families who have just experienced a loss receive all the necessary support, both from a professional standpoint and from a human and emotional perspective.
Among the main services offered is the preparation of the deceased, which must be carried out promptly after death. This can take place at the private residence, in a hospital, or in a care home, and involves dressing the body according to the wishes of the family.
Next is the setting up of the wake (or farewell room) and the organization of the ceremony, which includes planning the events, choosing flowers, selecting a burial or cremation site, and publishing obituary announcements for any type of rite (Catholic, secular, or any other religious belief).
The main services of a funeral agency also include handling all the bureaucratic procedures and providing legal and administrative assistance, transporting the deceased to the place of the final farewell, purchasing or renewing the burial plot in case of interment, or offering services for inhumation, tomb placement, or cremation of the body, including obtaining the necessary permits and documents.
Additional Services
If needed, funeral agencies in San Siro, as well as many others, can provide families with a so-called funeral home, a serene and intimate space outside the family home where the body can be displayed and where relatives can pay their respects.
Among the additional services is also the design, construction, and renovation of mausoleums (or family tombs) and funeral niches, which are private monumental structures of various sizes, meant to house the remains of entire families, with space for multiple urns or coffins.
A funeral agency can also take care of creating memorial monuments in various forms (statues, obelisks, crosses, or sculptures) with a wide range of customization options.
These agencies specialize in providing funeral art, offering a wide selection of materials for headstones or cremation urns, and customizing the grave marker with hand engravings and decorations that reflect the personality and memory of the deceased.
