SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) - A Puerto Rican man has been granted his wish to remain standing—even in death. A funeral home used a special embalming treatment to keep the corpse of 24-year-old Angel Pantoja Medina standing upright for his three-day wake.

1. Well it was his wish I suppose.
I think when I am gone I just want people to remember me in pictures.

4. If I were his family, I couldn't do it.
It'd freak me out to have a loved one standing in a corner of my house.

7. I agree.
It's just not for me. When my grandparents died I viewed the body but it was difficult for me. I much rather preferred to remember them as they were to me in life.
