Murdered Man Smokes At His Own Funeral In Bizarre Funeral Arrangement

Murdered Man Smokes At His Own Funeral In Bizarre Funeral Arrangement

This is unusual...

A man who was assassinated has been embalmed and propped up with a cigarette in his hand in a weird funeral arrangement.

Fernando de Jesus Diaz Beato even has his eyes open.

He was shot 15 times and as it stands, no-one has been arrested in connection with the incident.

The funeral home sat him in a chair, legs crossed, wearing his signature hat and glasses.

One of his sisters said: "Everybody is really surprised because seeing him like that is like seeing him as if he were alive."

Damaris Marin, the owner of Marin Funeral Home who organised the funeral, said: "This time is different because he is seated with his legs crossed but, this is the first dead man in history with his eyes open.

"We have seen that the families wish to see the dead men just as they were when they were alive.

"We gave [the family] a surprise by leaving the eyes of the dead man open.

"I think that this time was the most impressive reaction to any of the work we have done."
