There are places (some in the Mideast) where it was and still can be common practice to hire wailers for funerals. These people would come to the funeral and grieve extra hard for your loved one. Supposedly, the more noise is made, the more the deceased is missed. This concept makes no sense to me – when I die, all I care about is that my body is respected; aside from that, do with it what you wish.
