80-year old woman poised for wake

Sitting in favorite rocking chair, wearing old wedding gown

An 80-year-old woman has been memorialized at her wake sitting in her favorite rocking chair and wearing her old wedding gown.

She was surrounded by plants and flowers.

Her daughter says the woman specified how the wake was to be held.

At one wake, a slain boxer was memorialized standing in a makeshift boxing ring.

Marin Funeral Home in Puerto Rico is known for thematic wakes.
