My parents prepaid their funerals, so when my mum died, all I had to do was go to the funeral home and arrange for them to collect her body. The mortician remembered her because she has chosen – insisted upon! – the cheapest, ugliest coffin they had. He said it was a shiny pumpkin-colored thing, ugly as homemade sin. She told him she wasn’t taking it with her, and it would be covered with a pall at the funeral, and that was fine with her.
To her everlasting credit, my dad’s coffin was very nice.

A lot of them seem to start off a brown color anyway. This group of casket jokes is not really funny. The snowman jokes were better.

The casket brown clashes against the soil brown. It is not a good color match. Anyone with good color sensibility wouldn’t be caught dead in that.

I’m going to be cremated. They can make my casket out of papier-mâché.
