I don't like to talk much about death, which is why I didn't mention the recent deaths widely reported, like Heath Ledger and most importantly Gordon B. Hinckley. I just don't think anything I could say would do anything justice, so I keep quiet. I haven't yet seen Gordon B. Hinckley's funeral, or perhaps I'd have something to say about it. At any rate, I just read this about Heath Ledger's funeral, and I think it is so cool. Perhaps it's the way it should be.
*The above line is from a Better than Ezra song called A Lifetime.

I saw that same story and thought it was really sweet. I'm a little creeped out he was cremated though, for some reason!
Yeah, cremation is icky. That's the only part I don't like.
How cool is that? Ya'll are totally doing that at my 'wake'...LOL...
I like that she read Shakespeare. A nice "sendoff" but yes the cremation is ick!
Ok, I just saw that you put ick too Kelli. Great minds think alike...?
I just realized that Better Than Ezra totally ripped off that line from a James song. Tsk tsk.

that's amazing - i want to be remembered just as fondly and have my passing be beautiful and happy. (i realize that they are not happy he's dead but happy that they knew him)
I just get giddy when I look at your blog now...its so bright and colorful!
