Travis sorry to hear what your going through. I wanted to say first and foremost there is a lot of great advice on this thread including and especially about using humor. Humor can really help, but I have to say tread softly as there are a lot of people who get really upset about it. They do not want to be happy at this time, Laughing can make them feel guilty about enjoying anything while someone they love no longer can.

Good luck

Maybe in the future we can have headstones with messages that change every year or so. Just to keep things fresh.

Only because I want "Don't trust the zombie Me." as one of the headlines for a year.

I wonder how many people opted for "pepperoni" on their tombstone during the 90s.

I've still been fortunate enough in that death hasn't really been something I have been dealing with. When I was about 12-13, my friend's mother got lost in the middle of winter and died of hypothermia. And it was my grandfather who found her. Finnish funerals are a lot like what I read here. Somber and religious, though in a Lutheran way.

Last year, I lost my greatgrandmother. She was 93 years old. And the thing I remember most about it, is the pain I saw everyone go through. For some reason, my grandmother(not related to the deceased) told me the news like it was nothing. That she's gone and the funeral is in two weeks. But you could see a tremendous amount of pain of my greatgrandmother's son. He was just in pieces. It was weird to see a man I've known all my life as a strong man as a broken little boy, lost without his mother.
