Bar:<i>This is another reason to have my funeral at a bar or out in the woods.</i>
The funeral is a formality. The real event is the wake. It isn't even the drinking (although that sure helps), but being in an informal, intimate setting, sharing memories of the deceased with friends and family.
The only thing the living can do for the dead is to keep them in our memory. All the prayers, memorials, etc., come down the the same thing: remember them, and a little bit of them will live on in your memory.
Condolences on your loss, lurkette.
