The Candlelight Visit
The Candlelight Visit
A lite gauze covering sheeted the dead woman’s boxed body. A mortuary exam and physical cleansing was to take place. The burial ceremony and interment would show within the cabin’s backyard property. The property was family owned and was burial site approved as had been with great-great-grandfather and great aunts and uncles. A marked tombstone yet had to be selected for the elderly near-100 aged lady, who was the family matriarch.
The matriarch lay within the wooded cabin house setting, enveloped in soothing candlelight glow. Light incense burned and scented the viewing room. The full family members came into the first viewing; the second day was reserved for personal and professional friends and neighbors. Ministry representatives were called into each day for full requiem ceremonial prayers. On the third day, the ground burial marching ceremony took place.
Afterwards funeral occasion gathering was cabin house shown. The wooden log cabin housed two floors and had open living quarters.

And the legal taxation payments and any other related cabin and property issues would be designated to JD association decision; the decisions would be made after collaborative family member meetings.
And related to long-time friends and business associates, the matriarch left cabin and 30 to 40 property acres to be accessed for personal and professional usage. Once again, calendar identified along with JD and other family members input. The matriarch had also left a JD filed directory for friends and business associates relevant to further and future developments. Legal agreement measures would dictate when and if and which acreage design sell offs; the purposes would be duly identified. At interval timings, there had been some talk of parsoning off acreage to local town community for private and professional purposes. And at other timings, the family spoke to architectural condominium buildings and church site.
An estate jewelry package was also designated for each family and friend and business associate members. The
