In Ireland it's a totally normal, ok, and even consoling remark to ask "Was it a good funeral?". There's a lot in that phrase. Really doesn't work in the US though.

What’s the right way to answer that?! Yes/No, or details about the wake? The direction the question goes is hard to grok for a non .ie

"It was very big" would be a classic response, or "Everyone was there, and they had great stories". To have a big warm funeral, and your stories retold over pints, is very much an Irish life goal.
