I much prefer 'Going Home Celebrations' as opposed to funerals. Lady in our church lost her husband and I one of my best friends recently. It was a celebration we had because we KNOW and do not wonder of his present whereabouts. I like to think of it as people who cross over are going on vacation a little bit ahead of us. One of these days we will go join them. I'm hoping too that St. Peter will share where all the good fishing spots are.
