In the "good old days" it was common for the mourners to pray the rosary in common for the repose of the soul of the deceased. For the past 25 years (+ -- Vat II) since my ordination, a "wake service" to include scripture readings, prayers for the deceased and mourners is most common. From my experience, when a rosary is requested few, if any, of the mourners recite it.

∙ 10y agoThe rosary is a private devotion, or a devotion that is shared by a group, usually aloud. At a funeral it is part of the communal prayer experience to pay attention to the funeral rites themselves. If you choose to say the rosary during a funeral, it really makes no difference which of the mysteries you contemplate; feel free to choose.
