It is a day of rest.

Catholic AnswerActually, they are in some circumstances and on some Sundays. The Liturgical Calendar covers the regulations which govern what Masses may be said on what days. Votive and other Masses are forbidden on days found in nos. 1-4 of the "Table of Precedence", this is also true of Ritual Masses. (see "General Norms for the Liturgical Year and Calendar" as found in the Roman Missal, no 59.) Funeral Masses may be celebrated on all days except solemnities which are holy days, Sundays of Advent, Lent, or Easter, on Holy Thursday and the Easter Triduum (R1). Funeral rites on these days make use of a liturgy of the Word, closing with the rite of Farewell, as found in the Order of Christian Funerals, Part 1, no 4 (nos. 177-203) Probably the reason behind this is that priests must celebrate Mass for the benefit of the faithful on those days, and a funeral Mass is normally a special congregation.
