Ever been a pallbearer?

I went to a funeral today for a good man and was thinking about the two times that I was a pallbearer. The great honor to be asked. Have you ever been one?

I have. I was one at my grandmother's funeral. Also gave my first eulogy, which was a really cool thing to be asked to do.

That's cool that you gave the eulogy. I don't think I could do it.

I was one for my good friend's grandfather.

Yes. For old people and young people. Young people are the hardest.

Yep. Great grandmother, lived to be 93, and my best friend in high school died my Freshman year in college.

It's an honor, try doing it for a really big friend who had heavy taste in caskets....it can be a challenge.

Yes, and have given a eulogy as well.

I was asked to do the whole service for my aunt. it was an honor to be asked but it's never something you enjoy doing

I was for my paternal grandfather. It was a sobering and sad experience.

Three times, all grandparents

There's nothing cool about it.
What's cool is skydiving or driving a bugattit on the autobahn like a bat out of hell.
