I still think about my funeral occasionally, usually after someone I know has died. The plans changed pretty frequently until the last few years.
At the time of the original plan I was still sort of attending church, and most of the songs I chose were religious in nature. Since then my choice in music for my wake has changed significantly. Mostly. There are three songs I want played at my wake, in no particular order:
Amazing Grace
The Parting Glass
Feel Like Going Home
Beyond these three songs, the music is in the hands of two people, my sister and my best friend. I want lots of music, good food and drink. Especially the hard stuff, like Dr. Pepper.I've also decided that I want to be cremated. The thought of being buried in a box is just more than I can take. It's not logical, but there you go. Also, cremation will prevent any possibility of my becoming a zombie.
