The family of a recently deceased transgender woman in Idaho has generated a controversy on social media after choosing to bury the woman as a man.

Several websites have recently reported on Jennifer Gable, who passed away unexpectedly in October at the age of 32.

Gable, who was born as Geoffrey, lived as a woman for the past several years.

Friends of Gable have taken to social media to register their opinions on the matter.

CBC blogger Lauren O'Neil recently compiled a package detailing the story via the social media site Storify. You can read her account below.
