Cal, I'm so glad to hear you were able to influence the speaker. You're right, the infomercial approach to weddings and funerals only bewilders family and friends who are not JW's. It's tacky and works to the opposite direction of the influence. Rather it rubs people the wrong way and makes them cringe.

I just read the rest of the thread, about how you were able to not have the good ole infommercial.
That's great!! I want something like that when it my mom's time. I had already decided I was not
having anything like what they normally do!!
way to go!!

As a final tribute to my father I feel in my heart the mood of this BeeGee song "don't forget to remember Me "
The song actually speaks of a lost lover.. but to me it is a" perfect match" for the mood the inner thoughts
I wish to share. The love/hurt we feel with the passing of a close loved one !

wha happened?
I am so terribly sorry. I lost my Father 7 years ago and nearly lost my Mom recently. A day doesn't go bye without a thought for my Dad. 1-2-29 - 4-24-02

I wish I knew something more comforting to say to you.
