Burials

Religious funeral

Our funeral office, with complete conscience that we serve a very special vocation, honoring a long time tradition and respecting every wish you have, will ensure the proper conduction of the funeral of your loved one. To say farewell the way they deserve.

The meaning of a funeral includes all the preparations and rituals which are conducted by the family and community after the death of a person. The Greek word “kethia” , meaning funeral, comes from the ancient verb :”kethomai” which means to take care of, nurse.

We will look after your loved one as though they were our own intimates.

Civil funeral

A Civil funeral precedes burial or cremation and does not include any religious rituals conducted by any representatives of any religion. Usually it takes place in the funeral hall of the 1 st Cemetery of Athens, a hall especially arranged for this purpose or at the courtyard of the cemetery where family, friends and representatives of institutions can deliver a farewell speech.

A Civil funeral does not differ in procedure from a religious funeral.
