I want a simple funeral.
I want a simple funeral.
With only my closest friends and family.
I want it to be small;
Intimate.
Nothing extravagant. Nothing forced.
I want it to be in a reasonably priced hotel event/party room.
Where the girl at the front desk will accidentally play Cotton Eye Joe instead of Amazing Grace over the loud speakers.
And she won’t be able to figure out how to turn it off...
Because she’s only been there a month and no one showed her how to work the sound system yet.
She’s technically still a trainee, but Barbara, her supervisor, had to run out to pick up her kid from school because he bit the janitor again.
She said if anything went wrong to just call her.
But she’s not answering her phone.
And nothing the front desk girl tries is working to turn off the music.
So, my family has to just sit there.
Weeping quietly...
As Cotton Eye Joe plays in its entirety.
With the volume on full blast...
because the front desk girl snapped the knob off in her panic to turn off the music.
...is that too much to ask?
