| President Obama with 'Spider-Man' (PD) |
A grieving mother decided to honor her five-year-old son’s short life by requesting a superhero funeral for him.
NBC Chicago
reports that the six pallbearers therefore dressed as Spider-Man, Superman, Batman, Iron Man, Thor and the Hulk. Staci Denton explained that her son Brayden had begun his superhero affiliation as “a huge Spider-Man fan.” He then began to like all the others, as well.
Brayden and his uncle Cory (who was the pallbearer dressed as Thor) “watched all of the Iron Man movies together.” When they
attended a Superman film, Brayden went dressed as the star of that show.
Brayden himself had shown superhero strength during his 13-month battle with brain cancer.
