how many days after death is funeral
Messages: 3,553. White people's funerals are typically 3 days after death, unless that 3rd day would be on a Sunday, then they'd move it to Sat/Mon instead. Black families usually have more time - 5-7 days or more, I guess because of the reasons listed above, and maybe it's cultural.
ANSWER #1 of 4. 2 to 5 days. . . . . . I actually ask a funeral director. ANSWER #2 of 4. usually the wake is 2-3 days after and the funeral is the next day. It depends though on if they had pre-arrangements or if they need an autopsy. but generally only a few days.
