People in my family live long lives, so funerals aren't something that happens much.
That said when my step father died 6 years ago, A lot of people showed up, I saw people I hadn't seen in over 20 years, but recognized them the instant I saw them. People brought food and liquor and we had a little party afterwards where everyone drank Coors and Black Velvet which was my step dads favorite.
We never really got along, but he was always there when I needed him, I did the same for him and he left my mother very well off. He was a Marine and got full colors and 21 gun salute which was very impressive. I visit the grave from time to time, pour him some whiskey, tell him whats going on, let him know he's not forgotten. He was probably the most hardcore person I ever knew.
To me, death is part of life, the whole can't have dark without light and can't have good without evil thing I guess. I believe in God, just don't have much faith in religion. Death is the final question, what happens next?

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
