I thought when they requested his internal organs, it was a nice touch. We didn't give them to them. Don't know what the funeral home did...

Please tell me you said “Y’all don’t look like transplant surgeons, can you show me your UNOS credentials?”

Would be LOPA down here, and that's above my pay grade....

I want the Brahms Requiem send off

Not me. I want something like 'Thriller' or "Stayin Alive' or 'Dancing Queen' or 'Jump' or 'Money for Nothing' or . . . gads, there are so many great choices.

Guess I can't die.

It is appointed unto man once to die and then The Judgement.

I’m sure there plenty of tunes out there for that one too.

When you have a fat black woman with yellow hair who is suffering from dwarfism making the style statements, who are we to question her taste......

There is a lot of talk about closure and finality. Personally, I have never had any trouble believing someone is dead. Seeing their makeup caked corpse never helped in any way. Quite the opposite. I'd prefer to remember them when they were vibrant and alive.

I also never found a spouse or family member who said the funeral reduced their grief.

I think there is a value in gathering to reconnect after a death, especially in the case of the death of a spouse. You have been connected to the community as a couple, and now that has changed. Renewing those connections as a single person seems valuable.

Myself, I'm entertaining the idea of being wrapped around a newly planted tree. I'd much rather my descendants see and visit a living, helpful, beautiful tree than some cold stone.

I used to say "bury me head first up to my waist and use the crack of my ass for a bicycle stand" but the closer that day comes the less I am committed to the view.....

Since the decomposing body expels gasses, that might be an even worse idea than you currently think.

Or better, if you have Phibes' sense of humor.
