Who takes pictures at a funeral? I've never been to a funeral where people take pictures.

A lot of times, funerals function as a family reunion even if it's a sad occasion. When my grandpa passed away, not only did my father's rather large family all come together, but my grandpa's siblings also flew out from far away. Some of these people I had never met before. For this reason, we planned ahead and made sure to get a venue for dinner to host everyone after the funeral where we could all talk and reminisce and have a good time with people we almost never see. This would be a more appropriate place to take a photo, but some families may not have that option and just want to take the opportunity to get a family photo while they can.
So did everyone look solemn, or did they smile since it was a family photo?
Do both
I should hope that when I die that instead of mourning me at a funeral, they will celebrate me over a cookout or something.
That is not to say that no one should be sad. But instead, I’d rather them focus on the good times and not sulk in the bad.
Brings the meme to mind...
This meme is from 2019?! I could've sworn it's been on the internet for twice that long...
Tombstone literally says 2019
And its actually a real person and hero to the city!
Funeral: 😐
Wake: 🙂
I had no idea I was supposed to smile at a wake until they took the photo lol.
The social protocol is to not take pictures at a funeral.
Who the hell looks at pictures of people in funerals?
Duck lips and flash the peace sign. Anything else is an affront to the gods.
