famous people have passed away recently (michael jackson, farah fawcett, ed mcmahon, karl malden) ...parents of friends have passed away.
makes me think about what type of service i would want when it is time for me. i've asked my mom, my mahal, Joe's extended family ..hey, what do you want to be done when you die. it's morbid..i know..but if you don't say what you want- how will anyone know?
tita mely was shocked when i said cremation for me. she wants to be buried in the same cemetery where her mom is buried.
i'm like my mom ...i want cremation and would like to be close to where my kids are. not sure how my kids will take it ...but at this time- that is what i wish. i don't want to be buried in a cemetery where no one will visit me.
if there is a church service of some sort - i would like it at wheaton bible church.
i would like at least a 2 day viewing then cremation. i would like contemporary christian music played like the music i listen to on KLove 94.3 fm. you can just google KLove and find tons of music that i want.
to list a few:
I like anything Big Daddy Weave and anything Third Day
"there will be a day" -Jeremy Camp
"Homesick" - mercy me
"i will rise" - chris tomlin
"i can only imagine" - mercy me
"he's walking her home" - mark schultz
"cry out to jesus" - Third day
i would love my kids to read what i've written on this blog- so they can get a glimpse of me and also so they know that i love them.
i am also trying to keep a written journal -find it in my closet.
