Nothing weird about that at all. My in-laws paid for their funerals years ago. Picked out their caskets. Purchased burial plots. Headstone is in place. My MIL died in 2011 and even had her burial clothes set aside for us.
My Mom passed just a couple weeks ago. She always wanted "Happy Trails" played at the end of the service while her casket was being pushed out of the sanctuary. So that's what we did.
My husband & I have our burial plots bought - next to our youngest son. But as far as the rest - we told our oldest son to do whatever he needs for closure. After attending a celebration of life a couple years ago, that's what my preference would be - with a family graveside burial. No traditional funeral or visitation. Let people think of the good times & reminisce together. Plenty of time to play all the music I like, too.
That is indeed how you make it really gross! And like every Methodist funeral I had to attend growing up. Mayonnaise and carrots on top. So I am dead, I don’t have to eat it, but am sharing the love to new generations.
This is exactly why I want it at my funeral. Honor the past, torture the future.
I am so very sorry for your losses. So deeply sorry.
And I love what you said. When I say “memorial” - I just want a bunch of people hanging out. If someone wants to tell a goofy story, tell a story. If you want to do it with a beer in your hand, do it. And if “Pony” is playing in the background? Even better.
I want the bulk of my ashes spread in a foreign country that I enjoyed - my family can choose. But I do want some buried with those of our baby who passed. I am so sorry about your son, it is unbearable. <3
Orange jello with shredded carrots and crushed pineapple.
My other go to salad is cherry pie filling, cool whip, marshmallows and crushed pineapple.
My wife and kids have very specific instructions. .

Two that I’ve always liked are— ‘To Everything There Is a Season’ adapted and made popular by the Byrds, and Fernando Ortega’s classic rendition of ‘Give Me Jesus’.
