My Funeral Guidelines

At my funeral they will be playing Helen Reddy
“I am woman, hear me roar!” Cher’s “Gypsy’s, Tramps and Thieves”
And Adam Lambert. I love all his stuff!
I will be sitting behind my grandchildren, sending them the giggles

My besties will tell the funniest stories; there will be no crying.
People will be lying in the aisles kicking their feet in joy
As they hear how cute, clever, silly and insanely fun I am.

Flowers? Not unless they are marigolds.
They make my cousin Suzanne break out,
I would like to see her face as a big red strawberry welt one last time.

I probably should not have used my cousin's real name. Wait! No one in the family reads my stuff anyway. I am perfectly safe!

Caren, you have the most vivid imagination of anyone I've read on soup, AND more importantly, the funniest sense of humor. Cheers to you!
