[quote=Anonymous]My family is Catholic (Irish at that) and we do cremation. My grandparents "viewings" were filled with laughter and stories. It was an Irish wake at the funeral home. I felt bad for the people across the hall from us. We use the viewing as a time to celebrate the deceased person one last time as a big group. My in-laws do traditional viewings with a body and they are sad, solemn affairs. It cemented that DH and I would prefer to be cremated. We also make sure we take loads of pictures of ourselves and others. [/quote]
