That was interesting that he answered honestly like that! I'm with him, don't like funerals. I don't think I've wondered much about when I'm not here, can't see/get anything out of it :-)and I've been part of a situation or two where the living were "reassured" so they'd be happy now when it was known nothing would be done that way when they died. So, I guess I'd give your PDoc "credit" for being honest too, if more prosaic about it than he needed to be. I think lots of people have baggage about death/funerals and sounds like he was in his "official" role as PDoc, worried dead/funeral meant suicide or something.
