But a Christian funeral also should retell the Gospel story, should affirm that we died with Christ in our baptism and will be raised with Christ” (Funerals). There can be crying and sorrow at a funeral but it should be for the right purpose.

When he hears Beethoven’s fifth, this represents his confrontation with death, since Beethoven’s Fifth usually signifies death coming. While facing his near death situation, he also faces his other underlying fears as well.
