What I want and don't want at my funeral:

First thing is remember to let all my Whats app Contacts know I have kicked the bucket and tell those who sing with me on Smule Roopa, Meera, Shekher, Ravi and Suresh to inform all my other Smule Buddies

1- I could have died alone in bed on 13th April 2000. When I did not, I pleaded with my God for ten more years as Mithu and Anand needed me badly. Not only did I get ten years I also got a further extension of another ten years...I have lived every day the last 20 years being grateful for this extension and celebrated each breath even though breathing was getting more and more difficulty as time went on and the body was ageing.

2- Tell family not to waste their retirement funds on airfares to attend the funeral. I have seen all those who cared for me in the last 20 years and been in daily contact through Whatsapp after quitting FB in 2017. Ask family and friends not to mourn but celebrate any which way they can from where they are. Toast me a Black Label Scotch or a Glass of Red or a Cold Gold Beer and I will enjoy the last drop before I go for ever.

3- The last thing I want is a HINDU Funeral with a Brahmin Priest bathing me in public etc. I have published an article on this topic. The way Hindus deal with Death

Nor do I want to be a stiff in a box in a three piece suit. I'd like to be in my comfy Black Polo neck skivi and black pants with suspenders so pants do not fall off plus in my fav laced Brown Shoes with my Round glasses looking like Steve Jobs minus his bank balance.

4- Find Aarons Father to be the MC as he is most professional in conducting memorial services. He did a great job at Aunty Daphneys send off.

5- any one and eveyone who wants to come is welcome except Mainak Gupta if he is still around when I am gone.

6- Play the following music in the given order.

a- SHADDAP YOUR FACE 

 

Whats the matter you ? why you looking so sad? Its a nice a place so shut up your face .. ( Play Video on Screen)

b- Hindi Song . .. Zindagi ka Safar ( Play Video on Screen) (Provide Printed English Translation)

 

c- Tamil Song - Aaru Manamae aaru 
(Play Video on Screen) (Provide Printed English Translation)

 

Have every one up standing:

d- all family members present to come forward and Sing "Sudha Brahma" one last time for me.
You will be singing this for me. so face me and not the crowd.
