Funerals II
It'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

Last year, my Great Uncle died.
All very sad, a well respected if eccentric ex army officer. Well known and loved in and around Tetbury where he lived for many years.
He had been ill for quite some time and had planned funeral proceding down to the nth degree (including timings for people to be places!). The only thing he hadn't told anyone other that the vicar was his choice of music everyone would exit the church to. When it came to leave, we all filed out to the tune of 'Colonel Bogey' ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecpVzEnwyLU ). Everyone left with a big smile on their faces, making a tough day end on a cheery note. So for that Great Uncle John, thank you.
