Nearly every culture has customs and rituals to help the living to remember and show respect for those who have died. (There are many expressions and euphemisms for death, including saying someone has "passed away" or saying they have "departed" this earth.) Remember the departed means performing rituals, such as funerals, in which family members and friends recall the person who has died. There are also rituals like lighting candles in the person's memory or reciting certain prayers for their soul or bringing flowers to their grave.
