    I think this is a good topic and doesnt make me a bit sad. Kind of extends my life by letting me particpate ahead of time. For the funeral service, the sad and crying part, How Great Thou Art because it is pretty and combines nature and spirituality and In the Sweet By and By because it draws the family close. For the wake ... i am thinking start with the hit parade from 1964-1974 when i was listening and then let the attendees change clothes, kick back and put on their favorite tunes to eat, drink and reminisce by.

    There will be no funeral. A celebration of life and a boat ride on Lake Winnipesaukee ashes in hand. Born Free being song by family and
    Friends as my ashes are thrown up into the wind and settling in my beloved lake. Born free as free as the wind blows...
     
  6. I think that sounds beautiful, quite spiritual.

    Around and Around

    Time as I've known it
    Doesn't take much time to pass by me
    Minutes into days turn into months turn into years
    They hurry by me

    Still I love to see the sun go down
    And the world go around

    Dreams full of promises
    Hopes for the future
    I've had many

    Dreams I can't remember now
    Hopes that I've forgotten
    Faded memories

    Still I love to see the sun go down
    And the world go around

    And I love to see the morning
    As it steals across the sky
    I love to remember

    And I love to wonder why
    And I hope that I'm around
    So I can be there when I die
    When I'm gone

    I hope that you will think of me
    In moments when you're happy
    And you're smiling

    That a thought will comfort you
    On cold and cloudy days
    If you are crying

    Still I love to see the sun go down
    And the world go around
    And around and around

    nice.

    i agree....why would you want to be put in a air tight sealed box in the ground?

    Take me too Bethany Beach, De or to Hilton Head, SC and let me run free in the wind and on the beach.....The places i have always found the most happiness, joy and peace in life.

    I don't need you drifting onto my popcorn as I'm trying to enjoy lunch on the beach.
