A visitation service is an informal gathering of friends and family of the deceased person, usually held before a funeral. It is a time when people can drop by and offer their condolences in a more relaxed setting. The visitation can be held at the family home, a funeral home, or a religious place of worship. During the visitation, people might share fond memories and anecdotes of the deceased. The family invites people to drop by within a certain period to offer support and condolences.
