A friend of one of my brother's sang "Danny Boy" at my Dad's funeral.
Myself, I want "Be Happy, Don't Worry"--unless Christ comes before that, of course.

kat--are you thinking of the songs in "Sleepless in Seattle"?
"What a Wonderful World" by Lois Armstrong melts my toes.

I don't want you to mistake me for a smart alec atheist. I am a devout Christian, but I do not want a funeral. My family all know where I am going. I want to be taken directly to the creamatorium and if they want a small graveside service with my ashes, thats ok. I say this with no offense toward you on my part. God bless and keep you. And by the way, I think Danny Boy is a beautiful and fitting song.

I'm going to be cremated so there will be no funeral but if someone wants to remember me they can play my favorite Pink Floyd song - "Wish You Were Here".

Amazing Grace. My son's friends sang it at his funeral and it was beautiful and meaningful.
