Answer 2

I would want to be known as a good christian and one who was always first to stand and serve God. One who always thinking of others. And had good manners. That question remends me of a joke I read somewhere.(I hope you don't mind!)

There were these three men who were just coming home from a funeral of a buddy who just recently passed away. As they were making thier way out of the building they got to discusssing what they would like people to say at thier funerals. The first guy says, " Well, I would really like to be rememberd as a good father and a faithful husband."
The second guy says, " I would like people to talk about me being good worker and fair employer, and one who never quit on a job."
The third guy looks at them and says," You might think I am crazy and all, but I would like them to say,' Look! He's moving!"
