yep. i just buried my grandfather the other day and one of the pastors had the whole room laughing a few times randomly
Same here, the only difference I did not bury him instead I saw his remains going inside the oven to get cremated. Death is a bytch but it's unavoidable.

Sometimes a veil is offered or used when the cosmetics don't entirely cover the trauma, yet an open casket is still requested. BIG had a Catholic upbringing I think, and Catholics have historically used veils if I'm not mistaken. Sometimes, some families opt to remove it.

As for the underlined, a lot of "mourners" use funerals just to stunt and "signify" and "see and be seen"... been that way forever. Elderly and seniors (speaking of mainly senior women) lose so many, funerals are the one time they get to share all the gossip and news. Almost seems like they used to embrace going to funerals to socialize.

U.S. funerals...black U.S. funerals especially have always seemed odd to me. A mix of :to: and grandstanding ... just difficult, socially, to reconcile.

I done lost so many, I've seen the paparazzi pix at the casket. Arguments... etc.

I honestly think less black folks are having funerals... low key, I don't even hardly see funeral processions anymore.

I was talking with a funeral home director and he flat out told me, more black folks are opting for cremation and no service or anything because the price of funerals has gone up so much.

Cremation isn't "cheap" either... costs a lil' doe to burn up a body. :usure:

Y'all make sure your affairs are in order. You never know. If you really love ya fam save some doe so you can at least bury yaself and don't leave that burden on them. Especially if you know they ain't cakin' like that.

Most cities ain't paying to bury the indigent anymore :usure:


Getcha certs or ya gofundme game up :mjlol:

Other cultures do it better than us, IMO.

Back in the day, older folks in my fam said the casket and body used to be in YOUR HOUSE. :merchant:






Yeah. It's cool to note that Puff was smiling (and I'll dap for the observation), but to insinuate anything else isn't fair to him. Ideally, funerals should be a celebration of life as you said. Folks must not have have been a lot of funerals. Often some people are smiling, cracking jokes... etc. Doesn't mean anything sinister or that folks didn't love the deceased.

Is it also expensive to bury in the states? it's the same issue here in the UK my grandpa had no life insurance, or the right amount of money so the fam had join money together for the cremation yet that wasn't enough either my grandma still is paying the debts for the cremation which took place on Jan 27 2016. I've promised my grandma that I will purchase a memorial stone for my grandpa once I sort out my finances.

You wanna see me shot up, propped up
Mom crotched up over the casket, screaming
"b*stards!!!" Crying, know my friends is lying...
"Y'all know who killed him!
Filled him with the lugers from they rugers or they deserts!!!!"



That made me feel like I had shards of glass in my veins while I was typing it.

Lord...... :mjcry:

This Video is getting me down. I remember this Time, I was just getting into Hip-Hop..getting my 1st CDs at the time and Life After Death was 1 of them. This was really Sad to watch from this angle rather than just hearing about it.

you're a moron for that question.

Not at all.

Puffy being the only one in these pictures smiling while playing a huge part in him being dead in the first place is pure irony.

you disagreeing with notion doesn't mean I'm stupid, just means you missed the context clues.
