Have you ever wondered about that? How many if any would show up? After recently attending my cousin's funeral and seeing all the lives he touched and all the people besides family that showed up for his viewing and funeral and even the burial.....it made me wonder about that. I have wondered about it before. BUT......do you think you would have no one but family come? A few friends? MORE than that?
THIS IS of course IF you had a funeral. I know some do not want a funeral at all and if you think about it......it is a bit morbid I suppose to put a dead body in a room for all to come view. While I understand the concept....it can be a bit disturbing also.
Anyway......just my random weird thoughts.....
HEY BUCKS! What the heck happened Saturday night??????

Yeah, I've thought about it too, but I guess at that point since I would be dead it wouldn't really matter to me how many people showed up! Yes, funerals are more than morbid in my opinion, displaying a dead body for closure for the family has always been an odd concept to me.
I had yet another weird and strange dream last night that I'll have to email you about.
May your cousin rest in peace.
Hmmm... Very interesting question.
I'd prefer that others show their appreciation for the person who just passed away when that person was alive. So that he or she knows what he or she meant to those people. I recently attended a memorial service, which was very lovely. A lot of people showed up. Speakers had lovely things to say, his family played instruments and sang. I wondered if the person who had passed away knew what he meant to all the people who showed up.
I have no idea who'd show up to my funeral, probably just family, I suppose. If I mean anything to anyone, I'd like to know it now. Then they don't have to show up at my funeral or send flowers, etc... I'd like to appreciate stuff when I'm alive not dead. ;-)
