There are two kinds of funerals.

Sober sedate affairs where we stand around making small talk and toasting the dead with mournful faces, or..........

A full blown celebration of the dear departeds life.

Although i've been to a good few of the first type of funeral, and think they do have their place as a respectful memorial of remembrance, I believe the second type is better all round.

There is enough sadness to the day as it is, so we might as well have a party and send the deceased on their way in a way befitting everything they mean to us.
We'll drink, we'll sing, we'll tell stories, we'll drink, we'll drink again, we'll sing a bit more, then (just for a change) we'll have a drink.

Come to think of it, I think we try to give the kind of funeral we ourselves would like to have when it's our turn.

My Great Aunties funeral was legend.
I played a 13 hour gig for that one.

It's not for everyone, but I find it works for us :shrug:

I'm sorry for your loss, Mousie, but it sounds like a solid plan to me. The greatest compliment I ever received was when at a passed on aunt's funeral, a former fiance' of my dearest passed on dad said when she found me in the middle of a group of cousins kicking up a giggle "I should have known ! As long as you're alive, your father will never be dead !" ... He liked to kick up his heels a bit, too... lol ...
