I personally would be too freaked out to do it.]]> https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2056289431/funerals-how-should-they-be-done Sun, 05 Jun 2011 16:40:00 +0000 After Hours KnifeWRENCH 2056289431@/discussions
So with all that said, I know I'd hate that kind of funeral for me. But, on the other hand, I'll be dead so I won't be around to despair at it. And I know it's what my family would want to do if I died in the morning, so if it would bring them comfort having that kind of funeral for me should I just shut up and not raise my objections to it all now while I'm still here?

So this leads me to the point of the poll; would you rather your funeral be done the way you want it, and not be given a send off which you yourself would despise? Or does it bother you at all, do you just want whatever funeral your family/friends would be comfortable with? Should it be the wishes of the mourners or the mournee (that's not a word, is it?) that take precedence?]]>
