I just went to one for a 6 yr old. So sad. It is the second time I have been to one for a child.

I'm 30. I've attended somewhere between 15 and 20 funerals in my life (as a guest, not a musician) and 3 were for people younger than me - 9 months old, 5 years old, 15 years old.
As a church musician, I've sung at dozens more funerals. I know that at least 2 have been for people under the age of 25.

I'm 27, and I've been to fifteen, but that's an inflated number. Seven were for victims of 9/11. Another three were grandparents, one was a classmate in high school, one was a friend of my mother's, and three were college classmates killed by a drunk driver. So, guesstimating ages, I'd say eight or so were people my age or younger.

I'm 24 and we have a pretty big family. I've been to 3 funerals so far (but all my grandparents still live). One was about the same age as me, a boy who was in my class..all the other way older.

I'm 29, and in the US Army.
I've been to seven funerals in my life. Three were in the past year, since I've been in Iraq, but one was a joint service for two Soldiers. Three of those four were younger than me. The other three were for older relatives.
