A funeral procession is a procession, usually in motor vehicles, from a church or other place of worship to the cemetery. The deceased is usually transported in a hearse, while family and friends follow in their vehicles. In earlier times horse-drawn vehicles were used or in poorer societies a group of men would carry the deceased on a bier accompanied by a procession of people.
