wakes and visitation  

Definición

  • The wake is a watch kept by the living over a deceased person before burial takes place. Formerly held as a matter of course when a death occurred, the wake has become a thing of the past in many Western societies in the course of the last half a century, while in others it has been transformed into a family-centered, semiprivate event.
