As soon as death occurs, the family should notify the Rector. After setting a time and date for the service, the Rector will work closely with the family of the deceased to create a personal and fitting memorial or funeral, tailored to best remember the deceased, while still maintaining Episcopal dignity and order of worship. Services range from traditional and formal to less conventional and informal as suits the family's remembrances of their loved one. In the Episcopal Church, the coffin is always closed before the service and, while in the church, is covered with a pall or a national flag.
