Living funerals are becoming a very popular choice and involve a party or gathering in honour of someone while they are still alive. It is often noted at funerals that the person who would have appreciated it most, and the person whom the event centres around, is not there to enjoy it. A living funeral avoids this by holding a celebratory event to honour a life with friends and family, to share memories and to show appreciation. They could be marking a particular milestone, or facing a terminal illness, and would like to thank those around them. A living funeral is a true celebration of life.
