 Calgary Sun columnist Eric Francis called McMahon 's decision to continue the event " sick , disrespectful and wrong . But what else would you expect from the WWF ? " He added , " if there 's any justice in this world , McMahon will pay dearly for what his organization has done to further pain the Harts " . Some fans were also upset with the decision to carry on with the show . One man , who left the event with his children upon hearing that Hart had died , claimed , " It was disgusting .... For kids to see that , for this to be so @-@ called family entertainment , for them to just carry on as if nothing had happened , is just sad . " Martha Hart , Owen 's wife , refused to criticize McMahon publicly in the immediate aftermath of her husband 's death . She said that McMahon " absolutely should be there " at the funeral . She also stated , " I 'm a very forgiving person and I 'm not bitter or angry , but there will be a day of reckoning " . Commenting on the WWF 's decision to continue the show after her husband 's death , Martha stated , " After he lost his fight for life they just scooped him up and ordered the next match out . Where 's the humanity ? Would he have wanted the show to go on ? Absolutely not . "
