Funeral

Funeral playlist at YouTube.

Watching Sally Field movie, "Two Weeks," yesterday; her adult sons and daughter were arguing over what songs to include on her funeral playlist.

Or perhaps that should be "memorial." I spent the rest of the evening creating my own playlist. My son and two daughters already picked Terry Jack's "Seasons in the Sun," for theirs; they probably remember that it is mine also.

I often said, "I want an Irish wake." I should look into that ~ perception that it is a dance party. My songs were mostly dance songs. Some were just titles that apply to my life, even if the lyrics did not have much to do with my life.

"I was born by a river..." not in a little tent, but in nearby hospital, "and just like that river, I have been running ever since."

"Moving on, moving on..." I found my place in "the warm California sun," specifically, Long Beach

"I took a wrong turn and I just kept going." Did not have a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack. 

Peace on Earth songs. 

Depression songs, followed by Hope songs. Something like that. A mix. It is rather long. I will have to give it a listen and see if I can edit out some of the songs.

I probably saw the movie "Two Weeks," previously. Likely on Lifetime or Hallmark. Could see where the commercial breaks would be if shown on regular channels, not at Amazon Prime. 

Decided to post the link here, so I can later e-mail it to my heirs. To do with as they will.
