What is a repass?

A repass is a gathering or meal that takes place after a funeral or memorial service. It is an opportunity for friends and family to come together to share memories, offer condolences, and support one another during a difficult time.

Repasses typically involve a meal or refreshments, and can be held at a variety of locations such as a home, restaurant, or community center. The food served is often simple and comforting, such as casseroles, sandwiches, and desserts.

In many cultures and traditions, a repass is an important part of the mourning process, providing a space for loved ones to come together and find solace in each other's company. It is a time to remember the deceased, celebrate their life, and offer support to those who are grieving.
