[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 629500, member: 15796"] The service was yesterday. It was by far, the oddest funeral I have ever been to!! To clear up confusion - He was found unconcious at his home not last Saturday but the Saturday before. He was brought to the hospital and pronounced dead. He had no life insurance, four small children (two of them are disabled). His sister, my best friend, has been the caretaker for their sick mother after she had her stroke and became paralized. They do not have much money. So they raised funds and it took ten days to get everything in order. So either the body normally looks like that after ten days or the funeral home is really bad at what they do. It was not a good open casket simply because he was so gray/blue/purple. It was such an awful color. The speaker at the service was all about how we should not judge him because he has already been judged and that we don't know if he is in heaven or h*ll, but that there was nothing we could do about that anyway. But that there was still time for the rest of us. It was all hellfire and brimstone. My husband and I kept looking at each other in shock. It was not a comforting service at all and it ended very abruptly a half hour later. Just very, [I]very[/I] strange...my best friend couldn't wait to leave. We went to a local restaurant to eat and have a drink. People [I]were[/I] better dressed at the funeral than they were at the viewing...but I still cannot believe they would post that horrid picture on Facebook. That is NOT how I would want to be remembered. :( [/QUOTE]
