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

Having been lucky enough to avoid arranging any funerals myselfmy impression of funeral directors is 90% formed by the American TV show Six Feet Under.
It would seem the emergency service/24 hour availabity is due to random distraught relatives wanting their loved one's funeral arranged as quickly as possible (I don't know how long an 'unprepared' body stays undecomposing in a morgue), or because there's disagreement within the family over how the dead person should be sent off and doing it at 3am is an excellent way to avoid the other people in the family.
Or maybe the death was really sudden and the family wants to get the arranging over and done with?
(I have no idea.)
