I attended the funeral at our church of a retired pastor who was actually the president of the Japanese SDA Conference quite a few years ago. Above is the pianist and a lady handing out flowers to put on the table in front of his photo. He had been cremated a few days before in a private family ceremony. Below are the people in line to place flowers and then to give their condolences to the family. He had 3 grandsons who were friends of my youngest son.

Below shows the full church. My husband's parents are sitting below. Father-in-law was part of the program as he did a shigin number that was written by the deceased.

Too many people for inside the church so I sat outside with some of the church ladies. It was rainy and cold but we had a tent and space heaters.
