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...

Cheers Guys!My mother in law's death was a pretty traumatic experience, she was riddled with the big C and unable to express her pain because of Alzheimer's had sought solace in the bottle.
I wasn't looking forward to the funeral.
The cortege started off at a snail's pace and wound it's way around the back streets of Islington. On a patch of waste ground 3 street drinkers were sat with their cans of extra strong mid morning lager.
As we drew level with them they all put their cans down, stood smartly to attention, removed their caps and bowed their heads with great reverence.
I swear I saw my late M-I-L smile!
