Gyászolók

Gyászolók, also known as mourners or pallbearers, are individuals who accompany the coffin of a deceased person during a funeral procession. Their role is to provide support and comfort to the family of the deceased, as well as to the community. The number of gyászolók can vary depending on the cultural and religious traditions of the deceased and their family. In some cultures, the number of gyászolók is predetermined, while in others, it is determined by the family of the deceased.

The gyászolók typically carry the coffin on their shoulders or with the help of a litter. They may also hold flowers, candles, or other symbolic items. The procession is usually led by a priest or other religious leader, followed by the gyászolók, and then the family of the deceased. The procession may also include other mourners who wish to pay their respects to the deceased.

The role of the gyászolók is an important one, as they provide emotional support to the family of the deceased and to the community. They also help to create a sense of unity and solidarity during a difficult time. The gyászolók may also be involved in other aspects of the funeral, such as helping to prepare the body for burial or cremation, and assisting with the arrangements for the funeral service.
