Best Answer

The person, on foot, who follows the casket into the church for a funeral mass, is called the principal mourner. He or she is usually the closest living relative of the deceased. a silent running thing. be there , and act square! a funeral cortege seems to imply vehicles such as hearses, limousines, etc there is not equivalent. The principal mourner needn"rt always be a member of the Family, in the case of Queen Elizabeth I, Lady Catherine Knollys ( pronounced Nollis) performed this honor as Queen Bess had no living relatives on hand. Needless to see, she was the leading or head Lady In waiting and probably Closed Her Majesty"s eyes as well.
