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...

Well, I don't want to *upset* anyone...At my granddad's funeral (think a kindly Christopher Lee):
I was leaving the church, crying to myself, as you do in such situations, up comes the fat, so-similar-to-vicar-of-dibly-it's-not-even-funny vicar (who had forgotton to mention my mum in the summery of grandad's life...) and puts her arm around me, I turn my tear-stained face up, waiting for Christian words of wisdom and comfort;
"Don't cry - you might upset people."
