I always tell my boys "if you go out and get hit by a bus, I'd rather my last earthly image of you be from the last time we kicked it, not laid out in a coffin." But as I said, funerals are for the living, not the deceased.

This is why I don't look at people in coffins. That is just an eery image to have in my head. I'll go to the funeral, but I don't view the body. I don't want to remember someone that way.
