And (in for a dime, in for a dollar)... Did you actually accede to his request? Quote
Members RA1 Posted July 23, 2018 Members Posted July 23, 2018 How many funerals have you been to where the request was "MY Way"? Too many will seem appropriate. Best regards, RA1 Quote

But it was Wally's favorite song and they thought he would like it played at his funeral. I talked it over with the minister who was going to conduct the service. He was equally shocked. Together we talked to the parents and suggested the Navy Hymn might be more appropriate since he died on active duty and was buried in his uniform. Thankfully, they agreed. AdamSmith 1 Quote
Guest BtmBearDad Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 Definitely not a song for your hetero wedding, but could possibly work for your gay wedding. Bonus! Carl Bean has since established his own gay-affirming church - the vestments are fabulous - so maybe he could marry you, and later perform this classic! One of my all time favs! I remember as a young gayling dancing to this back in the Paradise Garage...sunrise, sunset! BBD Quote
