When Napoleon's body returned to France, did his old marshal attend the ceremony where he was finally buried in Paris?

Most of them were already dead by the time it happened.

To bring back Napoleon's remains, the Belle Poule expedition arrived in St. Helena in October and then returned to France on December 14, 1840. Philip felt that this would avoid the risk of rioting—Napoleon's coffin landed in Courbevoie, where former soldiers had been guarding all night. This is the "Last Camping", celebrated by Théophile Gautier in Emaux et Camées (1852).

The Dorard arrived in Courbevoie on December 14, 1840

As far as I know, only Marshal Sirte, who presented Louis-Philippe with napoleon's sword, and Marshal Monsi, governor of the Invalides, were present. Two generals, Bertrand and Gulgaard, were also present.
