After we had done the aforementioned donation to a medical school for my old man, we had a memorial service at his church. Since his spiritual home was New Orleans, at the end of the service, we had hired a local brass band to take everyone on a small procession out the church, down the block, and back, to some classic tunes, starting with "Oh When The Saints". My sister in-law and niece skipped and danced. It was pretty cool. 10/10 recommend, and I don't remember the exact cost, but it wasn't much.
The gumbo afterwards was not as good as he made it, but not bad either.

Cremation. By the way, I'm pre-selling my ashes for $50 per shot glass full in case any of you suckers want to invest. Postal money orders, please.
I’ll be cremated. I’ll be in an urn like my working dogs. I want all my working dogs ashes buried or spread with me.
