This is a question Putting the Fun in Funeral

Some deaths come suddenly or too soon and can really hit hard, others seem to be a blessed relief. Similarly, some funerals can be deeply upsetting and sad, others can make you want to hug the world.

Mmm, don't want to bring you down or anything, but tell us your funeral stories...

The Last
Funeral I went to was a very sombre affair, until we had to sing a hymn that is. On the page opposite the one we were reading from, there was a hymn about 'A fuzzy wuzzy little bear' or some such, cue lots of nudging, pointing and laughing (pretending to cry) for the whole rest of the service, plus, the vicar obviously didn't know the deceased so kept saying "I imagine she was blah blah", "I hear she was..." and "she was probably..."
What a way to go...

*edit: see below*

If I were a wiggly worm,
I’d thank you Lord, that I could squirm
And If I were a billy goat,
I’d thank you Lord for my strong throat,
And If I were fuzzy wuzzy bear,
I’d thank you Lord for my fuzzy wuzzy hair:
But I just thank you, Father, for making me “me
