SAE has both a general Memorial Service and a specific Burial Service within its collective Ritual. Both are brief and non-sectarian.
The Memorial Service is frequently conducted at conventions, leadership schools, and the like, and is used to remember all Brothers who have passed. Nothing contained within this rite is anything particularly secret, but the service is generally only held at meetings at which non-members are rarely, if ever, present.
The Burial Service is geared towards a specific loss. This rite can be either public or private, depending on the circumstances (if public, certain supplemental portions are omitted).
