That was a pretty dumb question.... did it ever occur to you that maybe they were crying so much that it required them to wear the shades???

Also by the way his name was OSCAR and not Oswald !

Eyes all puffy and red from CRYING is my guess! Puffy, red eyes HURT in bright light!

Is this person serious? I mean, really?

WOW.

I guess he/she hasn't been to much funerals to know that it is customary to wear shades, to hide your eyes.

Shades are not an unusual sight at a funeral. Some people simply use them because they are embarrassed to have other people see them crying - yet we all understand their grief.

I have conducted a few funerals in my time. Shades were worn at all of them.

Don't hate on Bahman7. I don't go to funerals as a rule, (unless absolutely necessary; the last funeral I went to was in 2006), and I didn't know about the shades thing either.

Das all it is....ain really a fashion ting except fa da occasional couple youts dem dat jus wan be seen in dey "Oakes" n ting. Fa da most part people wear them to help conceal their grief and tears. Its understood but not required n certainly not taboo.
