At funerals for various friends and family I have heard many preachers make the comment that they are in heaven now. True or not we will not know for sure until we are dead. This is what raises my question, What would you like someone to say on your behalf at your funeral.

Mine would be, and take it for what it is worth, "Nope C. isn't in heaven he is somewhere else shaking hands with his long lost buddies." Either that or "He's gone let the partying begin."

Please don't take offense, there is no ill will intended towards religious believers, but honest will out. Not everyone who dies will go to heaven and we all should know this. I would not want to go to heaven and run across some of the past evil doers who have walked this planet, and I hope you wouldn't either.

There are things that I have done, not proud of, but done that even though I have repented of that I am sure will come back to haunt me after death, and I realize that I have at best a 50/50 chance of going to heaven.

I have no doubt that many of my friends will place 6 and 12 packs in my casket. This way, I get my beer and they get their beer. Its a win/win

"Her integrity was bulletproof. She made an impact."

Oh, "...and she looked fabulous". Mostly the integrity and impact part though.
