Because they had to wait for a ride to their own funeral. You wouldn't expect them to drive themselves now, would you? That, and they were waiting for somebody to put the "FUN" back in "FUNeral"

Well, they are not going to arrive on time now, are they?!
Seriously though, my mother and father and brother died during the last two years. I have never liked the term "late" when referring to them, nor have I liked it when people say they have "passed away" or "passed on". It sounds like a wind blowing. I have a healthy attitude about death, and I certainly don't want to minimize how it makes those whose loved ones have died feel. Then there is this term used in hospitals and medical clinics - "expired" - what, are we now reduced to being compared to milk gone bad? I mean, my feeling is that people use the terms they do because it is less painful for them to hear. As for me, I prefer that people call it like it is - they are DEAD - they DIED. Calling it a softer term does not change that fact. I do try to be careful what term I use when someone ELSE has had a loved one die, however.
