  and this is a Caribbean-styled funeral; MUCH different than the Yankee ones I'm used to. Whoa!

  It's becoming more popular to take pics, but not for me.

  ...imagine (before I hit the return key) is that someone want proof of death, maybe? Depends on whether it's still or video.

  and that was just a sarcastic comment. Sometimes it's the only time family gets together. If a gathering, then pictures ensue.

  (In my family, the funerals are going to be a lot more frequent than the other events at this point in time, sad to say)

  to clarify: wouldn't dream of taking a pic at all during a service or at any time except the post-burial gathering.

  I don't see why people want to take pictures of someone in a coffin. I hate it when someone walks up taking 50 pictures.

  However, when my pastor died, they made a dvd of her funeral. But, the cameras were not visible during the service.
