Thread Name: 'Funeral home' songs
Subject: RE: 'Funeral home' songs
My instructions to my family upon my passing are that I want only Country and Bluegrass Gospel music at my funeral. I have given them a list of my favorite old standards including:

When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder
In The Sweet By And By

Besides the commonly known ones I also include:

I'm Using My Bible For A Roadmap
Life's Railway To Heaven
A Beautiful Life
Gathering Flowers For The Masters Bouquet

I hope I can peek from the other side of the curtain when my time comes and see how many of my wishes are adhered to!!

Probably the best thing to do would be to burn a CD with all my favorite tunes and make sure that someone gets it to the funeral home for me.
