So good, Elaine. We attended our first virtual funeral last year.
It was actually very beautiful. Our friend was a lover of classical music, and fine wine, as we are, so we sat there, in our study, surrounded by wonderful music, with a glass of wine, with tears flowing.
There are wonderful options for how we exit this world. One friend, a thespian, wants her cardboard box to be signed by all who attend, so she can check up on them, but also, to come up for an encore, before cremation.
I have written about bio urns where you are cremated, then your ashes are put in a pot with a plant of your choosing, and you can become a tree in your family's garden. I quite like that.
But what if you could have a wake before you die, assuming you are well enough, and refute all the stories that may be told about you? I rather like that too.
Here are the links to them if your are interested.
