Gatsby's Funeral

The only people who attend Gatsby's funeral are Nicks, Owl Eyes, Wolfshiem and Gatsby's father. Most Gatsby's so-called friends don't show up. There are a few reasons for this. It's possible that Daisy told Tom that it was actually her who was driving so they skipped town because they didn't want to have anything to do with Gatsby. They didnt want to have any ties with Gatsby that could lead the death of Myrtle to be traced back to themselves. Wolfshiem didn't attend because he believed you should know someone and value their life when they're alive then do nothing when they are dead. ANother reason he might not have gone was because he was involved in shading dealings with Gatsby and didn't want to have anything to do with him. Gatsby's father came because, through his eyes, Gatsby represents an accomplishment. Unlike himself,  Gatsby became successful.
