In my will, I’ve allocated money for a family barbecue, nothing but loud Jimmy Buffet music, lots of dancing and lots of lies about me. I don’t think this will happen soon. I’m kinda old but kinda healthy. Best I know, no one in the family has had a problem with me. Be happy I was here, not sad cause I’m gone. And don’t dare go near a church relative to my death. Hug a friend. Hug a stranger.
