Funerals at your church?

How are funerals done at your church? What happens after for a meal for the mourning?

I don't recall ever staying after the meal except maybe once, which was long enough ago I don't really remember. From what I recall my last church had a simple progression from receiving line to service to meal, and at the end of the meal people went home. Anyone particularly close to the family might have stayed around for longer but I couldn't be sure.

What I meant was, what happens after the funeral for the meal? Is it catered? Do the church ladies provide a pot luck? Or do family members go to a restaurant?

Ah, I misread your post. I think the food was provided by volunteers and there were few ladies who ran the kitchen.
