Funerals gives us opportunity to pay our last respect, it helps us feel as if we are close to the dead for the last time. For some though, it is just a tradition. But others have a sense of dedication in paying their respects. The ceremonies after cheer some folks up, especially with the crowd and surrounded with family and friends, but what if they are gone. A great comfort is that you watched the person go down first hand, at that point you know there is nothing else to do. Moving forward can be a hard thing to do, especially if the fellow is very close. But eventually options are slim concerning moving forward, one way or the other, life has a way of moving us forward whether willingly or otherwise.

You mean you want to be sure that person is dead?

Not really. I was referring to being present for the funeral, standing as a witness.

Standing as a witness? I never heard about that.

well, there is a first time for everything. At least, you've heard it now.
