Re: Annicita
Good to see ya here tonight, Annie! I also have three songs I want to play. It's a good thing to leave instructions. We might not "be there" to know it, but your choice of music and words will forever mark your legacy.

I intend to be cremated. I told my kids but then they never listen to me. I saved a few things for the service that can be used as a slide show. Might make a list of music that touched me for them to play. Just a small ceremony.

Re: Pat_B
Amen.
Lisa asked me to write down specific instructions on what she should do. I don't plan to punch out any time soon, but no one asked me if death would be part of my plans next Tuesday at 11:33 am. I can tell that once the temps of the day hit the mid-90s, this will be a topic for under the trees.

Very wise of you to hold this conversation. When a loved one dies without sharing any of their preferences it leaves the family lots of uninformed and uncomfortable decisions to make. We all want to do the right thing - to give the sendoff they'd have wanted. I think maybe I'll write down some last instructions/preferences for my family. Ya never know when the final bell's gonna ring.
