It's kind of funny 'cause I just got home from a funeral and was going to post a thread about it. I don't want a funeral but I know my survivors will do what ever they want. I personally believe we should celabrate the life of the deceased and not mourn their death. There is, of course, sadness in the loss of a loved one but remembering the good things certainly makes the passing easier to take.
I want to be cremated in a private cerimony without all the fuss, no viewing, no service, no graveside prayers etc... all that does is prolong the grief. Take the money used for the service and have a vacation on my behalf.
