Ok, funeral song stories.
The saddest funeral song I ever heard live was for a girl who died of cancer at 14. She had been active in raising money for juvenile cancer and worked extensively with Amy Grant and Vince Gill. Both came to the funeral home, and Amy sang the song "Why?" while playing an acoustic guitar at the funeral. Not a dry eye.
The second saddest was for my 22-year-old cousin. His fiance broke up with him a week before their wedding. He got really drunk and drove his truck off a steep hill at a very high rate of speed. We will never know if he did it on purpose or not. As they were carrying the casket out of the service, they blared over the sound system "He Stopped Loving Her Today." They had to carry his ex-fiance out of the chapel.
As for my funeral song, I don't really care. I will be dead.
