A funeral director plays a crucial role in guiding and supporting families through the funeral planning process. They assist with arranging all aspects of the service, from coordinating with cemeteries or crematoriums to handling legal paperwork and permits. They help families choose the type of service, select appropriate merchandise, and ensure that all logistical details are managed.
