That seems a fitting tribute.When I die, I want to be cremated. But I also want a funeral procession that just drives around aimlessly for about an hour, tying up traffic for no good reason.
Okay ... this made me laugh ...When I die, I want to be cremated. But I also want a funeral procession that just drives around aimlessly for about an hour, tying up traffic for no good reason.
Why are you against small business?For at least the past 30 years the Funeral
Home industry has pushed the concept of
"Celebration of Life". It was aimed at the
people who had no church connection and
thus no church funeral.
The Celebration of Life included a display
of the departed's favorite things in the
funeral home foyer. There was a slide show
of the highlights of the departed's life or
perhaps a video.
Of course, the Funeral Home industry wanted
to be paid for their facilities in hosting this
event.
I don't care because I'll be dead. However, I did tell my wife that I'll come back and haunt her if she spends one cent more than necessary on my funeral.
This is exactly what we did with my dad, and it was perfect. People showed up at their leisure, many former students, associates, guys he played pickup basketball with. Catered some small bites, simple help-yourself bar. Spontaneous toasts, stories told. It was perfect.Told mine the same. Have me cremated and have a gathering at house or something. Spend as little $ as possible.

Funerals are fuggin expensive. My sister (no pic) and I did most of the planning for my dad's funeral five years ago. Even though we knew the funeral director very well, it still felt like a scam. You're making decisions about many different things in a short period of time. Then, after it's all over, you get the bill and it's a whopper. Dad's funeral was pretty basic, but still cost about $15,000.
When I’m gone, have a Chinaman harvest my organs (if they are worth saving), throw me in the trash, and party and celebrate being together.
My dad played catcher at Stanford. We spread some of his ashes behind home plate and then some in the outfield. His brother suggested we spread some in the outfield, saying, "it might be the first time he made it past the infield." My dad was not a good hitter. Made for a great family laugh.Yep. Take what organs you can, burn the rest and pay some drunk kid to dump my ashes at Kinnick (or at our tailgate spot, whatever). Then throw a party with an open bar and cabs.
Just like your posting style. Very fitting.When I die, I want to be cremated. But I also want a funeral procession that just drives around aimlessly for about an hour, tying up traffic for no good reason.
I've repeatedly told my wife that if I go first I expect a giant funeral pyre, and for her to throw herself on in grief.I don't care because I'll be dead. However, I did tell my wife that I'll come back and haunt her if she spends one cent more than necessary on my funeral.
