• 144. This made me cry. What a great ceremony and celebration of a short life! And for that wacky Amber (2/9 2:10PM)who finds it inappropriate and tacky to laugh and not be visibly mourning at a funeral -- you're clearly missing the boat. Do you not think these poor people are complete wrecks inside? It's a FUNERAL. To laugh, embrace, celebrate, and share your love with others is the IDEAL funeral!! Go be miserable Amber, but don't take everyone else with you.

• 145. This is amazing! I'm so happy that they could find comfort in enjoying what he himself had loved so much! Seeing them smile makes me think they'll be ok--- they'll get through this, Which is what I worried about most! I hope heath was watching with a huge smile on his face. Now, lets let him rest in peace

• 149. Jake was probably at the American memorials celebrated by more "hollywood type" friends. He probably knew his presence at the Australian "real" funeral would overshadow the event. Plus, I guarantee there would have been the requisite snarky comments about the nature of their friendship, etc. etc. It was thoughtful of him not to go to this one.
