Your comment reminded me of my grandmother's funeral. She was Catholic and went to church several times a week. When she died they had a lovely funeral service for her and a reception/lunch kind of thing afterward. It was clear that they all loved my grandma and it meant a lot to me how people came up to us and told stories about her and how they cared about her. I am not religious at all anymore but I couldn't help but think that this "community" support and connection is what the church does well.
