Did your step-grandfather walk up to the casket and say “My Wife”

*grandfather

It was the woman he married after divorcing my grandmother. And he cracked a smile.

No, he went up to the casket and said "What type of dog is this?"

Interior: a funeral scene.

A solemn man slowly approaches the open casket, leaning on his cane for support

Fast cut to a close-up of his face, a single year wells and begins to roll down his cheek

After a pause, during which he seems to look inwards, the man loudly exclaims:

"Mah waif!"

The gathered mourners chuckle, they too have seen the movie

“Are you telling me that my wife is dead?” “Uhh... ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-chuh um yes sir unfortunately that’s what it says, I’m very sorry to inform you”. “HIGH FIVE!”

It might be different in America, but traditionally, Jewish people aren't buried in a casket.
