Funerals IIIt's been 7 years since we last asked for your funeral stories and what with Lady Voldemort's coming up, we thought we'd ask again.
The deeply upsetting, the sad and the ones that make you want to hug the world all have a place here on b3ta, tell us about them.
Thanks to Pig Bodine for the suggestion

I used to think thatuntil we saw my great aunt off at the Chilterns crematorium c.1994. As normally happens the attendees filed outside to look at the flowers and read the cards. As we were milling around a spiral of oily grey smoke started emerge from the low-rise chimney. Unfortunately there was a breeze and we were downwind. It was odd to be making polite conversation whilst getting wafts of BBQ/burnt sunday roast smells. I've no idea whether it was Edna herself or an earlier punter but it was quite funny in a very inappropriate way.
