Nauseated

Dear Queenie,

Why on earth do people take pictures of a dead loved one lying in their coffin at the funeral?

Queenie, why would they want to remember a loved one as a corpse?—Nauseated

Dear Nauseated,

I too find this rather gruesome.

I can understand viewing the body as a last opportunity to say “goodbye,” but I do not understand preserving that memory rather than how they were when alive. However, there’s no accounting for some people’s taste.
