to be honest i'm the guy that's laughing and joking around at funerals. no they're not ment to be festive events but the somber atmosphere often does not reflect the person that is the reason for them. seeing the tremendous outpouring of this funeral makes me think of the old "Why do they throw the biggest party on the day they know you can't attend".

some of the pics make it look more like a car show...something that i'm sure would make Gary smile.
