Normally no, however they are very loving and compassionate people and it always depends on the circumstances. But more than likely no, usually someone who is Jehovah witness has a multitude of friends almost like family and they know each other very well {in most cases not all}...where having that person's funeral in the kingdom hall wouldn't cause reproach on there god's name......someone who is not Jehovah, they may not know as well and they may run the risk of causing reproach to there god's name for some act that person did that maybe they where not aware of..alot of people would like to have there service there because of its beauty and of course no charge.

Funeral service in Jehovah church for a non Jehovah?
If u are asking if a person who is not a Jehovah's Wittness can have a funeral service in a Kingdom Hall (the place Jehovah's Wittnesses worship God or Jehovah) you need to ask the Kingdom Hall in your area. If u go during one of their meetings you can ask someone there. --Edit-- You can often find a contact number for your local congregation in the phone book for your area. Non-Witnesses are always welcome at the Kingdom Hall, and you will be made especially welcome if you are attending a funeral of a loved one who was a Witness. --End Edit--

Did a Jehovah's Witness do the private memorial for the Jackson family?
No. Micheal Jackson was no longer on of Jehovah's Witnesses.i dont think so. Very doubtful as MJ wasn't a baptised JW, and he wasn't active in the faith.No, private funeral services were no doubt held for Michael Jackson because his family and friends wanted an ceremony that was not public.Jehovah's Witnesses themselves would not have performed a memorial service for Mr Jackson, firstly because Jehovah's Witness funeral services are only held for members of the Jehovah's Witnesse religion and Michael Jackson was not one of Jehovah's Witnesses.Also Jehovah's Witnesses do not count unbabtised associates as Witnesses; Michael Jackson was never officially one of Jehovah's Witnesses.There are currenly only two members of the Jackson family (his mother Katherine and his sister Rebbie) that are actually Jehovah's Witnesses and they would be fully aware of the above two facts.
Can a non Jehovah Witness speak at the funeral?
Generally memorial services at the Kingdom Hall are held for active members of the congregation or their minor children. For a memorial service to be held for a person not fitting that description inside the Kingdom Hall would have to be evaluated by the congregation's elders, as to whether or not it would be appropriate. This would be done in a case by case scenario.
