IE6's funeral arrangements—right down to the photographer (http://www.flickr.com/photos/atendesigngroup/sets/72157623558035182/)— were made by design company Aten Design Group. They actually made it into a rather decent looking event:

Rest in peace, IE6. Even if we were enemies half the time. [Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/atendesigngroup/sets/72157623558035182/) via TechCrunch (http://techcrunch.com/2010/03/05/ie6-funeral/)]
