My grandmother just passed (R.I.P.) and I want to know what happens at a funeral so I know what to expect. Like what do they do? what are the steps? Basically what happens?

Hello
Sorry for your loss
It maybe a requiem mass which is just simple a service of prayer for 1 hour
It may be a short memorial service in the church
When in Rome do as the Romans do, you will be fine
Not a nice week for you now, hope all is well soon
