Putting the Fun in FuneralSome 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...

Too fat to be buriedA friend died, a rather large gentleman and a special coffin had to be made to fit him inside. Unfortunately the grave was dug to the standard council grave-hole dimensions and when the coffin was lowered it just stuck at a tilted angle in the top. The pall-bearers tugged on the ropes and a spade was used to lever the coffin back out again when it popped open and his corpse flopped onto the grass.
