The decision to open or close a casket for a jw funeral is left up to the family and/or funeral director recommendations based on condition of decease. Many religions prohibit an open casket in the temple/religious structure.

The casket was open in funeral home for private family viewing. In a traditional church funeral the casket is not usually open for the service.
