This isn't something we like talking about but I promised after we lost my Father In-law that I would tell my family what my wishes were when I passed from this world. Below is what I wrote.
To My Family
This is my dying wish
I wish to be cremated please. Anywhere, anytime…it doesn’t worry me.
After my cremation I would like my wake to be help at a pub (any pub) and I want everyone to remember me with a XXXX or Bundy in their hand.
Now to the special part. What to do with my ashes?
Well….I want them to be sprinkled in the ocean at Teewah. I want to go HOME. That is the easy part.
This is going to be the hard part as I know you all don’t have four wheel drives. Plus you will need tents and camping gear as you will have to spend the night….Hee hee.
I want my ashes to be sprinkled at the exact time the sun rises and sits on the horizon of the sea. I don’t want the sun and sea to separate. The EXACT time you hear? No sleeping for those of you that find it hard to get out of bed and see the wonderful beginning of a new day.
I don’t want anyone in their pyjama’s either. Get that Girl’s, no P.J’s. You all have to be dressed in your best camping gear. I want everyone that has the decency to see me off, to have a can of Bundy and Coke, opened and waiting (the time to drink will come). Once my ashes are floating in the water and they have started their eternal journey, then it is time to have that drink for me.
Oh yeah, one more thing. None of this standing back and not getting your feet wet either. You all have to be in the water, up to your ankles at least so my spirit can wash around you before I begin my new life.
After you have had your can of Bundy, I would love for you to carry on up at the camp site. Drink, get pissed and have a wonderful day at my home.
I love you all
Keep smiling for me
