The Dowager Baroness, Lady Caroline Linnington, will tell us the proper way in which mourning and funerals were done during her time. Would you contact an undertaker, a funeral furnisher, or a feather furnisher? Whom do you invite to the funeral? What funeral gifts should you purchase? Her Ladyship will explain the bier vs. the hearse, the proper pall, the arvil bread, the funeral cake or cookies, the mutes, the underbearers, and more. She will also address the proper mourning clothing and jewelry you should be wearing and the length of time you should wear it. At the conclusion of the program, everyone present should be able to layout an elegant and proper send-off for their dearly beloved.
