The funeral thing was a tiny tiny box
I thought you were referring to the size of the announcement, which did seem tiny.
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
could the funeral have been Hurley's? It would make sense that it was unattended.
Why does that make sense? Everyone likes Hurley.
Wasn't the funeral in an inner-city-type setting? Economically depressed, to use the lingo? Say after Hurley came back, spent some time in the psych. hospital, after he got out maybe his family didn't want anything to do with him because he was "crazy." And if he didn't really have his lottery fortune any more, he'd be living in a poor part of town. Maybe he was friendless because he avoided people because everywhere he looked, he saw Charlie, telling him to go back to the island.
Everyone likes Hurley NOW, but we don't know what happens in the future.
As for the other 5 Losties, and why they wouldn't have been at Hurley's funeral -- it looks like only Jack knew about it in time. Or perhaps the other 3 knew, but since we don't know who they are, they might not have been able to get to the funeral (if Sun and Jin, or Claire, went back home, for instance) and/or didn't want to go.

Our wings are not tired.
When asked about the departed one Jack said neither family nor friend. That indicated to me someone he didn't get along with on the island.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
My first guess was the dead guy was Michael.

I noticed Harold Perrineau was back in the credits.

I did too - and we didn't see him in the episode at all, did we?
And ABC is putting Lost up On Demand for comcast subscribers.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I note that Locke was a likely candidate to have no family or friends, and the one most likely to pine for the fjordsisland if he was cut off from it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I can't see Hurley's mom not coming to his funeral. And Kate wouldn't say "Why would I go?" about Hurley's funeral.

Thanks, -t. I knew someone had made a comment like that, and that's what pinged me as it being unlikely to be Hurley.

Unless something happens in the meantime. Why does Hurley find it so necessary to apologize for going with Locke, after all this time? What happens? Is there a huge, unforgivable betrayal in his future?
Still, though, Jack seems to still be okay with him, so he wouldn't call him neither friend nor family.
