Vietnamese Funeral Traditions

Social status and religion influence Vietnamese funeral practices, but Vietnamese funerals generally share a few things: They last several days and are filled with solemn beauty and respect for the person who has died. Rose Hills is a foremost expert in Vietnamese funeral traditions. Our funeral planners—many of whom speak Vietnamese—specialize in culturally sensitive funeral and burial traditions, and they work closely with families to design ceremonies that truly reflect the unique lives of the people being honored.
