Please don't do this at my funeral

I liked it. They gave us a SHOW. I'm sure the deceased would have enjoyed it. You don't do all of that for some random dude.

T T since you wanna bring my nigga God I’m into this, a funeral is not supposed to be a sad occasion, but a home going service, plus you don’t know shit bout that nigga’s life he may requested this to be done at his funeral.

[@AramaiJonassi]

I have never seen anything like this in my life but you can tell these are brothers from his fraternity and it meant a lot to them. At the end of the day it was about sending him home in a special way and it isn't something that anyone else has to understand. That was their way of honoring him so I'm happy if they are happy.

[@patricklister370]

u or very right.

[@theunknownsource8317]

That was a good explanation of the event, because I was like....😲... you're so right. Who are we to judge.

I am sure they work for the funeral home. We have a funeral home in St. Louis that offers this service. They use to have a reality show where they showed them practicing

[@collinspaulkjr.1942]

[@AngiesDoingIt]

I loved this just beautiful. Through hate for our race, lynchings, killings, drugs introduced into our neighborhoods, police brutality, etc. We celebrate love, life, and honor of each other. My friends husband's birthday party was like this, minus the casket. They marched and danced for him too. Watch a Ghana funeral and you will see why they celebrate everyday. Spread love even in death. Big difference, no ones celebrating his death, but his life.

[@ladyjayy1945]

I really like this, it is very classy & they handle the casket with so much care & respect. I am sure the family of the deceased was very comforted to see there loved one go home in style.

[@jazziblack8676]

When a police officer dies ... Something similar is done with rifles ... This is beautiful ... And can be done at my funeral.

[@Heiress983]

To each his own...but that place would have been emptied in record time if they dropped the body lol

[@LBethany08]

People people people especially the person who post this video on youtube! Before you comment and judge! Take a look at this video carefully and closely! Notice the surroundings This not a funeral service. Its not even set up to be a funeral service. Look at the room. Its a hotel ballroom. Look at how the chairs are set and placed. There is not a body in the casket. GeeWiz! This is a competition that took place at the National Funeral Directors and Morticians Convention that was held in New Orleans Louisiana! The Convention is held every year during the first week of August in different cities! This year the Convention will be held in August 2015 in St. Louis Missouri!

[@juliedomian3044]

Amen.

[@torilee3804]

+Lee Bethany Exactly!

[@PastorLockettHarris1]

+Lee Bethany Thanks for explaining. At our national church convention, we hold sessions like this, not as large, to teach newer ministers how to conduct funeral services. PEOPLE view videos carefully before making negative comments.

[@mozellesanders562]

Lee Bethany oh, that explains a lot! There are conventions for everything!

[@rachelmm05]

Lee Bethany yea at 1st I thought it was a funeral. Then I knew it wasnt when they held the casket above their heads, turned around, and held it up with one hand. To attempt to do that with a heavy corpse would not be good.☺

[@annewesley6148]

Now, seeing the title is what made me watch this video, so imagine my surprise when I see this amazingly choreographed funeral march! By the title, I'm thinking, please don't tell me that they are going to knock the casket over or drop it, but this was tight! I don't see what the problem is. See, we have it twisted most of us, we are supposed to REJOICE when a person leaves this world and CRY when a child comes into the world, but we do totally opposite! I recently lost my grandmother and she was my backbone, our families backbone. I hurt like crazy and miss her terribly,but I couldn't for the life of me break down like I did at other funeral! Why... cause first of all, my granny was 98yrs old! Secondly, my granny knew and served the Lord and I know and trust in the Lord and I KNOW where she went! But the main reason is because I heard her speaking these words to me.... you dry up them tears right now, you hear me!? Don't you cry for me, I wish you could see the tears I'm crying for you cause Mamma is fine! I don't have no more pain, no more bills, no more worries! I am at peace waiting for you to get here! Me personally, I've told my family, I want the traditional New Orleans home going!!!! Louisiana folk got it right!

[@vomoore6616]

ppl are just jealous that Jackson family currently holds the record for best funeral acrobats. So far the two-step march and casket one-hand-switch-twirl remain unchallenged.

I don't see how anyone could see this as anything but VERY respectful. I would love to go out this way.

[@lakishaogletree5054]

i read the comments and although they are funny i feel the need to explain. This is referred to as a crowning hence the song the soloist is singing. Before closing the casket they will place a crown on the deceased head.

[@mzdragonfly835]

No the song actually is about the crown of life the Lord gives to the ones that loves him. The song also mention about putting on a white robe which is a spiritual meaning as well....it has nothing to do with the physical.

[@lindamartin2929]

I have seen this before. There's a funeral home in St. Louis, (they were featured on the cable channel "TLC." The show was called 'Funeral Boss'), that offers this portion of the funeral service as an option for the family. I think it brings a very unique aspect to the otherwise "regular" home going service.

[@haroldbottom3474]

Please look up the definition of sorority before using the word.

[@haroldbottom3474]

Amir Womack The answer is what school did you attended ? First of all,"U" is not a word in the english language. A sorority is a society for female students in a university or college, typically for social purposes. Men are in fraternities not sororities.

[@ronblack9181]

+ Amir...I believe, Shelia, is saying rest easy my " brotha," is 1, she means it in a Christian sense. 2, I don't know if you are black but in our culture we use the term " my brotha," a lot. So it could just that, or both? my Brotha.

[@haroldbottom3474]

Amir Womack Amir I was never the joining the group type, I refuse to to get my azz beat to be part of a group. That 's what gangs do right?

[@swoo3130]

That was definitely much respect , and very memorable. Good work guys

[@lettersender8776]

I don't see ANYthing wrong with that at all. I read all these comments first and thought it was going to be a 3 ring circus, or people "attempting entertainment" and failing. This is his family's send off to him, that's paying their respect to the deceased. None of you have a right to judge this. The song was very appropriate. It is a heart ache to lose someone on the earth to send them into the earth while their soul has already risen. That was professional..not that it matters...but it what they attempted to do.. they did with great skill and respect. Soldiers buried may get a gun salute with shots fired. Not everyone understands that, but again..it's a high level of respect in sending them off. Gee wiz people. Are we all still so stuck on "our way or the highway"? When will we EVER learn to blend. Just stop judging the way every one does their thing accept when it harms people. That's all. That's it. And this nation would be a different, and so much more magnificent if we could all just do that. Live and let live. Amen.

[@TT-bz1ne]

Jae Emm yes the song was beautiful, the antics weren't keep it real auntie Emm

[@TT-bz1ne]

Jae Emm true live and let live what about God? What about how God feels about it, remember the Lazarus that died and wanted a cool drink of water in hell, wanted Jesus to just stick his finger in water and touch his tongue with just a drop of water, wanted to go back to tell his brothers to change their life so they wouldn't come where he was HELL

[@DiahannLee]

Beautiful! I know I want dancers and a brass band for my own funeral. They better bury me how I lived. Carry me to my grave with joy! But then it is an important part of my Surinamese Creole culture. Some Americans might frown on this.

[@consistentlyloyal8163]

This is a show. I hope when he/she was alive they show that they appreciate him/she

[@briankalenda3604]

God bless these guys they can send me home this way

[@TT-bz1ne]

Brian Kalenda no Brian you don't want this form of witchery presiding over you or your body.

[@TT-bz1ne]

Dead or alive Amen

[@John-kv7jo]

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it part of their culture to send off the departed with a ceremony like the one above? Jnr

[@user-xm5le5ok2r]

Hell no, that is not a part of their culture.

[@TerrySlappy]

I'm African-American and I have seen funerals with similar ceremonial stepping, but not quite as elaborate as this. The departed must have been a dearly beloved brother or mother or someone else very close.

[@spoda81]

I work for a Black owned funeral home(I'm white) this is just the way it's done this is mild I've seen some shit that would blow your mind

[@BigMamou367]

+Todd Smith it's probably one of those Willy Watkins funeral home services. They will provide what every you want. They hire people for all types of funeral services.

[@nikkismith8447]

Now THATS a celebration of life and A home going...🙏🏽❤️

[@henrywashington3732]

[@butterfly77330]

This is great, and honorable.

[@TT-bz1ne]

butterfly77330 you need Jesus....

[@davidmcgraw1792]

I agree. Done with so much love and respect. Obviously the pall bearers new him well and gave everyone a little insight to the mans personality. He was looking down loving his brothers for celebrating him. Just love it. I would love it someone did that for me. BTW I'm a white guy for whatever that means to those that say everything is black and white

[@sizwendlanzi8181]

I love this! No pain and sorrow but CELEBRATION OF A LIFE well lived!

[@chitownmytownofficialonean6067]

this shit is dope the perfect way to send one away most people think everything is disrespectful when in fact its showing love to the loved one
