A few days ago, I found out that my grandparents life long friend, known only to me as "Dit", passed away. Dit was only half of the infamous "Dit and Dot". Dot was his wife. He used to drive around with toothpicks stuck all around the upholstery of the top of his Oldsmobile and had a particular thirst for "all things that are good", as Old Gregg would say.
Today, my mom writes to let me know that he was buried with a bottle of Jack Daniels and some toothpicks. At hearing of this awesomeness, my sadness seemed to melt away knowing he will be taking whiskey with him to heaven.
When you go, is there anything you hope is buried with you in your casket? If you're cremated, is there any item you think is going to be present at your funeral service?
I don't really know that I would want to be buried with anything, but I would like to leave some money behind so that my friends and family can throw an amazing party in my honor to celebrate my life and get boozed up in the process.
