When did my friend's father die, usually in the morning and afternoon?

Generally choose to go in the morning.

Those who come to mourn should bow down to the dead in the sound of mourning. As the saying goes, "Death is the first priority", so besides the elders who don't kneel, even the peers should bow down. In some places, condolences are called "memorial".

In some places, when people come to mourn the dead, some people even cry and sing about their friendly relationship with the dead, telling the dead how to bless him and so on.

Custom:

In the city, the mourning ceremony has been greatly simplified, mainly the farewell of the body and the memorial service. The people who came to pay their respects were dressed in plain clothes, white flowers and black gauze. They bowed to the body in a mournful voice, and then saluted it around the body.

Mourners can say some brief words of comfort to the main relatives of the deceased, such as "please take care", "I hope you are sorry for your loss" and "pay attention to your health" to comfort the families of the deceased and take care of their health.
