Because every person deserves dignity, even if their circumstances were such that no one is mourning their death.

- layer8 3y agoThis really depends on whether you think that someone who is dead has the ability to care. In my opinion, funerals are for the living, for those left behind. And it’s those who don’t like the thought of non-attended funerals who organize this, and it’s really for them, not for the dead, whose lives are already over and done. Dignity is for those who can experience the dignity or lack thereof.
