Wedding Ring Coffin

My stepmother recently passed away and his daughter wants to put her (my mother-in-law) on his costume jewelry (earrings, necklace, watch, wedding ring diamond on it and bury it in him) it kind of weird to me OUT. So, do not see any thing of body and the coffin opened.

This is not so weird. It is common practice and tradition of burying a person with their precious posessions. Even if they can not take things with them, he shows them to be more beautiful and their honors for buried with things they value in life. Her daughter probably just wants to look Nice and show how her mother meant to her by her funeral good things.

Well, they are not necessarily germane to the situation. But
behavior you describe is in fact a fairly well established custom
back to prehistory.

Remember the Pharohs (sic?) Have been buried in great splendor and with
all their valuables.

But it is true that it is a bit unusual to put something of value in a coffin
in modern times.

And it's actually a bad idea. For, if and when the economy turns
"South for the winter, it is not uncommon for some desperate individuals
exhuming the dead for deposits of gold (or other things like
Diamond Ring you mentioned).

Maybe a good idea of your parent's counsel to refrain from including
any real jewels in the casket. Costume jewelry is the most I'd suggest.

It is not uncommon at all to put jewelry on the deceased. It makes them more like themselves. Costume jewelry is very much to bury, but I usually recommend to keep the family jewels of value, as it is not the deceased's all good!

Regarding the responses of Robert and confused:
Robert, we do not steal the jewelry. This is ridiculous. I am perfectly capable of buying my own jewelry. We are honest, educated people, we do not need to steal from a corpse, we have more than kuth, Thanks anyway.
Confused: The bodies were exhumed to steal the gold teeth? Really? Hmm, thats strange that the casket is usually closed and then placed in a concrete vault that is generally closed (and not just forget the lid alone weighs about 1,000 pounds usually). However, if you really think someone will get a backhoe to dig up the body and then use a jackhammer to bust open the vault, all for a few gold teeth worthless that you can not even be sure are they? Is Ludacris. Gold teeth are worthless. It is such a small amount of gold to start, do you really think someone exhuming a body? They did not, I guarantee it.

Sometimes when you lose someone, it is very difficult to let go, especially when you were very close to them. My father died two years ago. It was a kind and gentle man who was loved by everyone he ever met. For some of us, it was comforting to put things in his coffin, so we would not be alone. Photos, Grand daughters teddy bear, which was something she had done for ten years and cherished. We do not want him to be there, alone. No, it does not matter because he was dead, but for us it did.
Had something this lady loved the jewels? Perhaps it is comforting for her daughter to send him this way. Funerals are not dead but alive to say goodbye to them. If it makes her feel better about mothers death, go with it. The important thing is that you help her.
As for feeling weirded out about the whole thing open coffin, you obviously have not lost someone close to you. Not bad, I'm happy for you, but it is different when the one in the coffin is someone you really loved.

Well maybe you are weirded.
