My funeral. At least there noone will be pointing a shot gun at me. They will probably have already used it.

Most of religions consider death and funerals as very sacred and keep away from social occassions in respect of the past person. There are so many customs but then it is only the mentality that counts. Your family will see it as not fit for you to go for parties. However, most of this is for the others to see. I come from a Catholic country where some years ago they used to be very strict about this, even in what they wear. If it was a close one they used to dress in black for a whole year. Now the mentality has changed, they only wear it for some time. After all you don't give respect by what you do and wear but the respect to the past one should be given while he /she was still alive. After all death is only a passage from this world to another much better than this world. And for this we should be happy and not sorrowful. Yes it is natural to feel sorrow for the loved one. As I told you I am Catholic and I agree with this. The funeral should be a feast if we really beleive in afterlife. You are a free thinker. I wish that you take your life seriously and while setting aside these things think carefully on your soul. It is not a joke. I think that you may attend, since it concided like this. You can but keep a bit back from dancing or others like these. Even if it is for your family or who knows you. But you still be present there for your boss's sake. Life must go on and if your boss expects your attending because he doesn't care at all, you won't be doing any unrespecful thing against your grandmother. I think your grandmother won't like you to stay out. Even for your family, you can speak it up with them and show them these views. Good luck and may God give eternal peace to your grandmother.

More people attended my wedding. I was married during a church service (about 350 people). I really don't expect that many at my funeral, but more than that will be waiting for me in heaven.

I've realized in life that more people like me than what I always give myself credit for so I think there will be a lot of people at my funeral.
I have been married and it was small but I'm still sure my funeral will be packed.

I haven't died yet, but I can say that I hope there won't be as many fat people at my funeral.

I hope not! My hubby and I eloped. The only people there besides us were the preacher, my sister and her boyfriend at that time.
