Answer 1

Yes, The Funeral's of Head's Of State are important for closure for many around the world.  They are the stuff of History books, If the photos and video are done correctly this can pay for the event. Even the comments made by world leaders at such an event are remarkable. Ultimately  all  this pays for itself.
