The body is burnt at a later date to the service.

depending on the cemetery, the next of kin will have chosen where to put the ashes.
Normally there will be a place where they can be put when ready.

Depending on the plans made, the cemetery will just put them in their spot or family can be present.

Glasnevin have a rose garden or wall.

They can of course be collected and taken home.
