I remember watching a vid of the funeral a year or so ago.

I remember watching a video of a bunch of Alliance on Kil'Jaeden busting up an in-game funeral about a year ago. Those guys were assholes, and at any rate, this link refers to a different funeral.

Still, MMO funerals are a thing to be expected, I think. When a person puts that much of themselves into a game, it's just kind of natural, especially if they're in the game with a bunch of like-minded folk.
