I know...
Don't laugh at the dead person if you see their corpse. |

just respect them, keep to yourself..if you see someone you know crying, comfort them....but on the safe side, i would just look down, and pay respect to the person no longer with you today

dress appropriately...note that most people will wear black. Now wearing something that will catch your attention...like bright pink clothes won't do it.
Just respect the person that has just passed away...and for those who are mourning. It'll be fine. Just don't do anything extreme. |

Be quiet.
Don't smile. Cry if you knew the person well. Act as if you care. Don't be disruptive. |

no smiling unless you are doing a eulogy honoring the recently passed away.
wear black don't attract attention during the service. crying is ok pay respects to the coffin and the immediate family after the service. |

(1) Wear black...not a bright pink shirt with a smiley face that says "SMILE TODAY IS UR LUCKY DAY!!" or somethan like that lol
(2) Be quiet and respectful,,,don't start laughing at your friends inside joke...people will like stare daggers at you (3) try not to bump into anyone, nething, or the casket. With that all said, you'll be fine

Be polite, wear all black, and try not to talk. Oh oh and try not to act like you don't know what to do, like look at your friend to see what she's doing or how her expression is.

Since you don't know the guy, just sit around and keep to yourself, meaning just be quiet and don't attract attention to yourself. Turn off your cellphone if you have one, and as an obvious rule, wear all black.
