Taking It
With You A Chinese funeral rite that dates back to the Sung dynasty (960-1269Hakes little stock in the adage that you can't take it with you. The rite calls for the burning of paper replicas of items that the deceased will need in the afterlife. These paper offerings may include money and replicas of things such as cars. This notion of preparing the dead with material possessions that they will need in the afterlife is nothing new, as ancient Egyptian custom attests. If nothing else, providing the dearly departed with significant gifts and offerings provides survivors with a measure of comfort at the symbolic act. It is a practice that increasing numbers of people are embracing today. Part of planning your future is to take care of your loved ones by making your wishes known. At the MOSER FUNERAL HOME, 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton, we take care of you and your family by offering various preplanning options for you to choose from. For a tour, call 347-3431. Bright View Cemetery, just outside Warrenton, offers monuments and memorials for all cemeteries.
