        Sorry @LindseyGrahamSC should not be given this honor.. unless he now honors his friend & mentor & finally becomes the Man McCain knew him to be in the past⚡️ Country over Party 🤔 how could he allow Trump to speak of & treat McCain as he had!

        You “usually” don’t physically carry it. It’s often on a wheeled platform. If they do “carry” it, it will be by the handles near their waist. Not up on their shoulders the way Reagan’s was.

        Ah, guess I only attended low-budget funerals. I've been a pall bearer and that casket was heavy. Hard to imagine these folks doing that.

        Indeed and I’d agree with you. Reagan’s was solid mahogany, and it had 8 active duty service men carrying it. I remember watching it on TV.

        Often older guys are “honorary” pallbearers, and walk with the casket but don’t actually carry it. I’ve done it a several times and yeah, sometimes you barely lift it, but if you do, it can be very heavy.

        Even on low-budget, they just have to raise the casket onto the rollers. Six skinny millennials were able to lift my grandfather’s casket onto the rollers.

        Often that’s the way. But depends - I had to carry a large man up stone stairs of an old church that didn’t have a handicapped ramp. 6 big guys struggled.

        This is a decision for the family based on McCain’s wishes certainly - but did anyone fill him in about his good buddy Lindsay Graham betraying the hell out of him?
