A funeral is mostly for the people left behind that have a hard time coping with the person that has passed and needs help grieving so they gather for it and they say it's to pay their respects but it's really just for them not for the dead.
If you want to pay respect for the dead you can do that any time you want at their grave site/cemetery.
I just don't like the whole impromptu family reunion-ness of it. Also the type of families that only have a reunion during a funeral but every other time they don't give two s
hits.
