No, but a funeral is for the living, not the dead. No matter what Michael Brown did nor did not do, he left behind people who are grieving the fact that he is dead and that they will never see him again. As far as I'm concerned, Alpha Phi Alpha is reaching out to comfort people they don't even know, who possibly don't have the means to give their loved one the service they would like him to have. And that to me is a very classy gesture.
