Blog – React to the attendance at Gatsby’s funeral. Why do the people who come, come? What is it meant to show us?
I am surprised about who all showed up to Gatsby's funeral. Nick remembered that Gatsby would have wanted a funeral so he planed one for him. There were many people who were in Gatsby's life that should of attended the funeral. Tom and Daisy didn't show up, Daisy was Gatsby's love and disrespected Gatsby in a horrible way for not coming to his funeral, neither did Meyer Wolfshiem or Klipspringer. Im angry how Kilpspringer sort of dissapperd and called Nick to get a stupid pair of shoes from Gatsby's house. This shows me that some people were just using Gatsby for what he had. Kilpspringer used him just to live in his house, and Daisy I felt was just playing with his mind to get what she wanted. The only peolple who attended were Nick, Gatsby father Henry Gatsby, Owl eyes and some servants. In conclusion, the only people that came were the people devoted to him and his true friends, this is meant to show us that some poeple aren't your true friends they might hand out with you cause your rich or popular. Last, people can't always have there dreams come true.

I believe that it actually makes sense why some of the people mentioned would not have gone. The "mob" guys would not want to be seen with a dead body. So while people liked him, some just could not go.
