I was just wondering, because I was thinking of an elderly lady I once knew who owned a flower shop. One of her husbands had died back in the 1950s when a tractor fell on him and crushed him. And she always had old black and white photos of him lying in his coffin on display in her flower shop for all to see. I remember that six years ago, when my grandmother died, it didn't even seem as though she was there when I attended her funeral. I remember seeing her lying in her coffin, but her body just looked like the empty shell that it now was. My mom has pictures of her from when she was alive, and I prefer to think of my grandma as being alive and with a smile on her face than as a corpse that bears no resemblance to her when she was alive. What do you think?
