The Difference Between "Interred" and "Entombed" in Funeral Sacraments

Important Notice: This article applies to the New ParishSOFT Platform. If your diocese hasn’t migrated yet, explore our knowledge base for relevant resources.

When entering a Funeral Sacrament you will be asked to designate whether the Deceased has been "Interred" or Entombed."

If the Deceased has been buried in the ground (including within a vault), this would be qualified as "Interred." If the Deceased has been placed in an above ground Mausoleum or Tomb, this would be qualified as "Entombed."
