What i have noticed at jw funerals is no one cries. Its honestly really creepy.
A "genuine" elder passed away.
I sat at the back at his funeral, and was crying.
My friend (an elder) in the row ahead, turned and looked at me as if I were an alien.
attended funeral.

No one cries
My mom was jacked up on pharmaceuticals at Dad' funeral so she
wouldn't cry
They generally believe that crying shows a lack of faith

JW services are an abomination. They laugh, gossip, discuss sports and plan their weekends when they should be sitting quietly.....TD
Yep.......And......That`s the grieving family..
Mine anyway..
The JW side of the family were totally inappropriate..

Mom`s Dead..
WANNA HEAR A JOKE?!..

You walk into a "worldly" Church it has a solemn atomosphere , reverence and respect,children are quiet and respectful as they regard it as a "Holy"place.
You walk into a Kingdom Hall and its no different than if you walk into a K-Mart store.noisy adults and undisciplined children running around.
Zeb , if their is an afterlife your attendance would be much more appreciated than any JW who would have attended,

" They generally believe that crying shows a lack of faith".
And yet they read of Jesus' tears just before his raising Lazarus.
