Earlier this month, we were stunned with the news of Keith Flint's passing on March 4th. The Prodigy frontman took his own life, via hanging, and was found in his Sussex apartment in England. He was only 49 years old.
Yesterday, March 29th, was his funeral, and family and friends gathered to pay tribute. It looks like Keith really went out in style, with his his coffin transported in a horse-drawn carriage, which features a flower arrangement in the shape of the Prodigy ant logo. The word "Keef" was spelled out in orange flowers on the roof.

I think Keith would've been really happy with how it all went down.
