But for myself, I am not a big fan of needing to turn it into a religious event. I think memorials are great, a celebration of the person life! Not to leave God out of it of course, but I fail to see the need for a sermon, personally.
I did my grandfathers funeral, qouted more Louis L'amour than Bible, it was about who he was. He loved Louis L'amour and hunting and fishing.
