I didn't attend the funeral but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it.
I have a hat. It is graceful and feminine and give me a certain dignity as if I were attending a state funeral or something. Someday I may get up enough courage to wear it instead of carrying it.
I had a friend who was a clown. When he died all his friends went to the funeral in one car.
Old age: I fall asleep during the funerals of my friends.
