Re: How Many Do You Think Will Come To Your Funeral?

Funerals are there to help the living achieve closure. Usually it's a healthy closure, but if gloating is their closure then why deny them the pleasure because after all why should any of us care if we are gone?

Re: How Many Do You Think Will Come To Your Funeral?

At my wife’s funeral (cremation) I was amazed at the amount of people that were there. Some of them I did not even know.
I wondered if maybe my son had organised a ‘rent a mob’.

None.

I'm just going to be burnt - noone present.

It is burials that they use hand cart from the church or prayer hall to the hole in the ground.

I was thinking more of the expression "We're all going to hell in a handcart"
