For a funeral service at a funeral home, clergy typically wear a black stole as a sign of mourning and reverence. The color black is traditionally associated with death and mourning in many cultures and religions. It is a symbol of respect for the deceased and their loved ones.

What does a priests stole look like?

The stole that the priest wears is a narrow scarf like garment, usually a couple inches wide that goes around his neck and falls roughly knee length. They are usually the color of the season, or white or gold for a feast or a funeral, though the later could be purple or black; and usually the same design and fabic of his chausable. Catholics believe that a priest should always have a stole on when doing anything liturgical, ie: hearing confessions, preaching, giving out Holy Communion, etc. If it is a spur of the moment, like a requested confession (as opposed to scheduled confessions), or Last Rites for an accident victim, he might put on a small, portable type stole which is only a inch or two wide and a couple feet long. The reason for this is that the stole is the symbol of his priesthood, so that, for example, when confession is heard, it is not made to 'father so-and-so' but to a priest.
