It depends... hmmm
- religious beliefs
- whether or not there is an autopsy
- whether or not they are waiting for extended family to arrive from other parts of the country or world
- availability of facilities (church, funeral home)
- funding

I have known people who have been in all of these situations, making the funerals anywhere from the next day to 2 weeks later. Sometimes there is a "memorial service" because of 2 or 5.
