Italian term

partecipazioni

Italian to English Law/Patents Law (general) Estate law
In a holographic will, an individual has written:

Signor X dovra inotre provvedere alle mie spese funerarie, senza partecipazioni di alcun genere e La sola benedizione in cella mortuaria.

In this context, does "partecipazioni" refer to attendance at a funeral service? If so I would translate as follows:

Mr. X must also arrange for the payment of my funeral expenses, but no funeral service is to be held, only a blessing in the mortuary chapel only."

MTIA for your help!

Discussion

Inter-Tra Dec 8, 2015:
per favore frase precedente e successiva. Non aggiungere assolutamente nulla in più al testo dipartenza, in alcuni stati seteri, i testamenti olografi hanno difficoltà ad esser riconosciuti. Fondamentale ed inattacabile è la fedeltà testuale.

announcements

Collins Sansoni IT/EN dictionary, partecipazione entry no. 3 >communication; announcement.

'...without announcements of any description'... > without advertising the funeral in any way

I disbelieve: no contributions to the funeral expenses, though the positioning right after the phrase sent my 'Spanish antennae' that way.
Example sentence:

Comporre l\'annuncio delle partecipazioni nozze. Può essere fatto dagli sposi, dai genitori o dai figli.
