At the risk of repeating myself, no, but him being a public figure has nothing to do with that.
You earn the respect you're given. Rob Ford earned his, and I don't believe death earns him a single ounce more. If Ford was a crack smoking racist, it's no less appropriate to say it today than it was to say it a year ago.
Death is just death.
