Among the many things we needed to take care of today was going to Fitzhenry's Funeral Home. Shirley wanted her body brought there because she liked the building. Honestly, it looked like a DMV so I'm wondering if we got the right place. Anyway, we go through the whole spiel about what they offer in the way of cremation. Missy wants some kind of urn or box to put Shirley. I wished I could have taken a picture of Dad's face. He gets this look on his face when he doesn't want to spend money. Kind of the same look Boss Karen gets when I ask for a raise.
So after looking at the urns and boxes Missy decides she can't decide on anything yet so Mr. Funeral-Man gives us a catelog and a price list. What we gather is Dad doesn't understand why she wants to keep a box if her Mother is going spread in the mountains. Dad wants to bring a box from home...he just said something about bringing his tackle box. Now Dad is wondering around the house looking for a box. At least he's got something to do! He just came from the garage with an old Hamms Beer box.
Here we go...
