Let us clear this up front:
Everyone has the right to grieve in their own way, in their own way.
For example, we can't say for sure what's going on in Kody Brown's head following the recent suicide of his son Garrison on March 4th.
Our hearts truly go out to the Sister Wives star.

That said, we need to deliver the next report.
According to The Sun, a memorial service hosted by the Nevada National Guard on March 9 was somewhat tense and uncomfortable.
Photos from this event went viral last month. Most of the focus was on Janelle Brown as she mourned her son and was handed American flags by soldiers screaming uncontrollably.
This picture is heartbreaking.

Meanwhile, new information has leaked about this very sad incident.
A source who attended the funeral told The Sun this week that Kody made the situation awkward and uncomfortable with his attitude and behavior.
“Kody was callous. He was more resistant to fitting in,” the insider told the outlet, adding:
“Robyn encouraged Kody to sit closer to Janelle.”
This is bizarre and, if true, horrifying.
Garrison was the son of Kody and Janelle. Was he really not sitting next to his grieving ex-spouse? Because she left him months ago? Even in her biggest nightmare imaginable?!?

As has been well documented, Kody was only married to Robyn at this point. Christine and Janelle told her how strongly he loved her throughout her years.
How did his favoritism toward Robin influence the two women to stop their plural marriage?
Heck, Christine said Robin was sad and pathetic.
So let’s open the memorial hall quickly in March…
The Sun wrote: “This hasn’t been good for Robin either, as many family members are still angry about her.”

The source continued, “The family reunion was awkward, but everyone came together and supported each other.”
This was at least a consistent theme that came out of Garrison Brown's funeral.
Consider what his cousin Emma previously wrote about this via Instagram:
“I had to get dressed for your funeral today and this is everything I wish I had heard from you before I said goodbye. We love you.”
As you can see above, she concluded in a beautiful way.
I wish I could hug you and tell you how much you are loved. You were human and you had your flaws, but I never once doubted the friendship we had.
I will always cherish the time I spent with you. We planned to go on so many backpacking trips, but only went once.
I'll miss your dad's funny jokes, coffee shops, and the dinners we had together. Every time we watched a movie you always made sure to put a messy mask on your whole face. You always made sure I ate and made sure I could always talk to you.
You were a son, a brother, a soldier, and a friend. If there is a God, I hope he gives you peace. I love you Robert.
