Keith is talking about how the dark allowed these last moments of this day to be private.

... and how ironic it was that, for a man who lived his whole life in the light of the public eye, the final moments of the funeral were conducted in the dark.

I would have liked seeing Vicki getting the flag, though. Maybe one of the pool photographers got something.
