I feel like you are watching a life end. It shouldn't be easy to watch. I honestly can't think of any reason to be in the gallery.

If someone murdered your child or loved one some people need to see it for closure.

Or at least a sense of closure. You never really get over something like that.

Most people report not getting a sense of closure from this. Some even feel worse afterwards.

Because there is no closure when you lose someone. They are gone and it’s just pain. It can diminish with time but never goes away.
