As a Greek, I known some basic information of how Greek burials work, especially since I have experienced such an occasion. The Greek Orthodox usually wear black clothes in the funeral, and there is also a priest called. The burial is held a few days after the person has died. Family members or acquaintances put new clothes on the corps, most often white. Like nearly all memorials, people have flowers to put on the tomb.
