The Jewish traditions related to death and mourning are intended to recognize death as a part of life. Burial takes place as soon after death as possible. Traditional caskets are of plain wood. Embalming, viewing, and cremation are not permitted and flowers are discouraged.
Your Rabbi should be consulted for specific questions about burial and mourning practices such as the observace of shiva, recitation of the Kaddish, observing a yahrzeit, and attending yizkor services.
