If I was on funeral leave or sick leave I would be paid my holiday pay. How is FMLA any different?

We had a big battle with that here. The outcome was since FMLA is an approved absence, then the holiday is paid because it is excused. It is treated like any other FMLA day, regardless of being on either side of a holiday.
Did I word that OK? I'm not sure if I understand it myself.
