Death and Dying

Some older fellows were having a conversation about death and dying. The question came up, "What would you want people to say about you at your funeral?"
One replied, "I'd want people to say, 'He was a great and compassionate humanitarian who cared about those in need.'"
A second said, "I'd want people to say, 'He was a good father and husband, whose life was a fine example for others to follow.'"
A third answered, "I'd like them to say, 'Look! He's moving!'"


A letter allegedly sent to a client by the Depart of Social Services in Greenville, South Carolina:

Your food stamps will be stopped effective March 1992 because we received notice that you passed away. May God bless you. You may reapply if there is a change in your circumstances.
