Funerals
Last year was not a good year for the elderly relatives in my family, we seemed to have lost more than usual in one year. I ended up having to go to a lot of funerals. That got me thinking about what do I want for a funeral. I certainly don't want a Catholic Church funeral, so what do I want people to do when I die. I didn't come to any clear conclusions, except that I want someone to play the Rolling Stones-Gimme Shelter which happens to be my favorite RS song, I also like Sympathy for the Devil so why not play that one too and finally Knocking on Heaven Door by Bob Dylan. What are your thoughts???

My family knows to save money on the disposal issue. My plan is to squeeze all the goodness out of my life compatible with concern that others do the same. My senior years are devoted to grandfathering, wood carving, music, beer and fostering the Lake Superior Freethinkers which I founded in 1997.

Thanks John it worked just as you said. Or else my prayers were fruitful but I doubt it. I prayed to delete them and poke in raspberries instead.
