Arrangements are made with a member of the family or an official representing the group in charge, as well as undertaker. The President occupies the front left-hand pew and is attended by his ADC.
The immediate family would normally be placed in the front pew on the right.
The President should arrive five minutes before the casket in order to be met by the officiating clergy.
The President will not normally go to the cemetery.
If the casket is carried out at the end of the service, the members of the family of the deceased should follow immediately after the casket. The President comes next.
Representation of the President at Funerals
An ADC may be requested to represent the President at a funeral. If he is a uniformed officer he should conform to the following:-
- Service dress, with medals, aiguillettes, and mourning band should be worn to the service;
- At the service the ADC will sit in the first row on the left, and will leave following the chief mourners (he assumes the President’s precedence). The ADC will not follow the procession to the cemetery.
This is the only occasion on which the President is "represented" at any function, although requests may come from time to time that this be done. The President does not act as an Honorary pall bearer at a funeral.
Attendance at funerals of relations or friends of great intimacy is of course a personal matter and no ADC attends the President, but proper arrangements for seating should nevertheless be made with a member of the family and the undertaker.

If you are looking at blank cassettes on the web, you may be very confused at the difference in price. You may see some for as low as $.17 each. You may be saying to yourself, “Wow, what a deal!”. But be careful, check out the quality before you make your purchase. Make sure the tape will fit your needs. If you are using your cassette tapes to record something fast, and the life of the cassette will be short, then maybe the cheap ones are for you. However, if you need a quality recording, or are looking to keep that cassette for some time, then you will need to be prepared to pay a little more. The quality you receive will be well worth the added cost. Spoken word applications are one use that requires a higher quality cassette. Going with cheap blank cassettes will certainly result in poor quality originals and duplicates. If you are involved in recording speeches, sermons, lectures, audio books or teaching tapes, then you will find the points below of great interest. So what are some of the differences, and what should you be looking for? The following is a list of suggestions on the type of tapes to use:
1. The cassette shell should be held together with a five-screw design. This type of design will help to keep the shell from warping. If the shell warps, the tape will not be able to move smoothly for good recording or playback. It may not be able to move at all. The five-screw design also allows the cassette to be taken apart if necessary. So, if the shell got damaged, the tape could be moved to a different shell, for continued use. 2. Using Type I tape is sufficient for spoken word applications. You still need to make sure that the tape is of good quality. Poor quality tape will result in a poor quality recording. It can even cause undue wear on copiers, and more frequent cleaning of the copier heads.
3. Make sure that the felt pad that presses the tape against the head is sufficient. The larger the pad the better the tape to head contact allowing for better quality recording. Even a slight separation between the tape and the head will result in a poor recording.
4. Pins and rollers are also important. The rollers are what guide the tape around the corners of the cassette. The pins hold the rollers in place. Some manufacturers will use plastic pins. This has the potential of the roller and the pin becoming welded under heated conditions. Also, if the rollers are of cheap quality, the tape may not move smoothly while recording or copying. The tape can even become damaged due to friction.
5. Slip sheets are the sleeves between the tape and the case. These are also important since they help the tape to travel smoother. Smooth travel of the tape is critical to a good recording.
