I was at a funeral a few years back at which the deceased got in the last word. He had actually written out what music he wanted played at his funeral while he was on his death bed. Most of it was very beautiful "goodbye" songs. At his request, however the funeral closed with what he called his final thought for us all. It was Roger Miller's "You Can't Rollerskate In A Buffallo Herd". It was completely nuts and completely appropriate. His life philosophy had always been "You can be happy if you've a mind to". It's the only funeral I have ever attended at which everyone left laughing.
