What kind of a send-off is Gideon given?

Juges 8:32 (NEG79)

32 Gédéon, fils de Joas, mourut après une heureuse vieillesse; et il fut enterré dans le sépulcre de Joas, son père, à Ophra, qui appartenait à la famille d'Abiézer.

Gideon is given a royal send off. His death and burial are recorded like a king’s would have been. In fact, it sounds very similar to those royal death and burial formulas that you find in 1 and 2 Kings; it is nearly word for word.
