The
funeral participants gather around the coffin placed on a table in the
center of the church. |
Attendants
light candles in the corners of the coffin, again to light the way through
the darkness of death. |
The
widow and the daughter of the deceased stand at the coffin as others
gather around. Other family members pass out bags of snacks as pomană,
or alms for the dead. |
