Discussion what do you hope to be said at your funeral?

[friday21st]

Those of you who have loved ones that you wish to speak at your funeral, what do you think/hope will be said about you?

 

[Passersby]

Nothing will be said at my funeral because I am not having one and it's been confirmed in writing. Whatever you would like said at yours though I hope is honored and works out the way you like.

Do you not wish to have a funeral. How come?

It doesn't matter, really, since I'll be gone. I think a lot of those around me hold neutral opinions on me. I just exist. However, I wish to cause as little pain as possible to those around me when I'm gone, especially my mom. She's the one person holding me back the most. Don't even wanna think about her reaction.

 

[Hunter2005]

I don't really want one, I don't want fake people there to be honest because why come and say something nice about me when I'm dead and gone. You should have said it when I was alive.

Yes that's correct, I won't be having a funeral. I've thought about this for a long time and was unnecessarily stressing myself out way more than I already had been about what would take place there until I realized for sure that I didn't want it. It was instant psychological relief. It's not required to have one either. I see it as a major waste of money and I don't need random people or no people showing up acting like they care in order to drag out the death process more. There are a few personal reasons as well and I simply just don't care about it. Ideally I would just push a button and disappear forever.

If my wishes are respected, there will be no funeral for me. I want to be cremated, have my cremains placed in the cheapest container, and put in a plot my parents bought in the 1960's. No service, preacher. prayers or gravesite service. My sister knows my wishes. I hope she respects them if she outlives me.

To be honest I don't really care, whatever words comfort my loved ones. I don't recall who said it first but there's a quote that's something like 'funerals are for the living not the dead'. However people want to process their grief is up to them, I don't mind. I expect mine will be a pretty small one anyway.

I literally just heard that quote in the movie "the fault in our stars". That's what made me think of the question

 

[Ambivalent1]

I won't have one. I better not. I didn't know many people

 

[enviro400mmc]

Not answering the question properly but I definitely know what I *don't* want to be said at my funeral.

Anything blaming SN, IC, SaSu or indeed pretty much anything except myself for my death. Also don't really want anyone to say anything to the effect of me having been a happy or positive person. And nothing to suggest I was popular or well liked (outside my family) either.

 

[Death is my goal]

don't really care

 

[leavingsoon99]

I don't care. I just want to be gone.

 

[unsaiddes]

Part of me doesn't want a funeral at all, because nobody in my life can say anything that accurately reflects who I was or why I committed. The immature part of me wants a funeral so that the people who have hurt or abandoned me come and express their guilt/regret. It's not like I'll be around to hear any of that though.

When my dad died a few years ago we did direct cremation and no funeral like he wanted. After we got his urn we had a small gathering of immediate family and close friends. Sat around and shared good food and stories.

I would want the same for myself but whatever people need to help them grieve is fine with me.

 

[yive]

idk if there will be a funeral for me or not, but i have no friends anyway. of course i want my choice to be 100% respected, no tragedy, no drama, and want them not to look for someone to blame but they will do the exact opposite because they are crappy ppl

 

[outrider567]

No funeral for me

 

[Stormy Raine]

I left wishes to be donated to science. I don't even want a memorial, it will just be a bunch of fake people that will pretend to be shocked to see I'm gone. Nobody cares now, so keep it going

 

[Lxions]

I would like them to read my suicide note. I want everyone to have peace of mind once I leave.

 

[starlover]

My family is the one reason why I'm still here. I do love them, and feel loved by them.

If I do decide to move on, I'd want them to understand, and not hate me, and be glad that I'm at peace.

I'd hope they talk about the good times we had together. And wish me well on my journey.
