The family of 26-year-old Fernando de Jesus Diaz Beato held a funeral for their son, on Thursday, who died earlier in March. Keen to remember their son just as he was in life, they decided to present him in the Marin Funeral Home, San Juan, seated with his eyes open, and clothed in sports gear while holding a cigarette.
His sister, Ihizz Diaz Beato, explained their decision, saying: "we didn’t want to see him lying in a coffin. We wanted something different. And also, we wanted him to be remembered by his friends and family the same way he was when he was alive."
Although the owner of Marin Funeral Home, Damaris Marin, said that, while this was not the first unconventional funeral they had hosted, this funeral has received "the most impressive reaction" from the public.
