I have never spent any time thinking about my own funeral or how my friends and family would spend the days thereafter. But if I did sit down and ponder how people would react to my demise, I think I would want my friends and family to celebrate my miserable existence the same way Ger Foley’s loved ones sent him off. With an aggressive, and possibly shirtless, sing-a-long to one of my favorite songs.
Peter Teahan, the guy who posted the video, told Joe.ie, “A local man Ger Foley (Farmer) was buried that day aged 45. He had cystic fibrosis. Brian O’Sullivan on the counter was paying tribute to him.”
Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to notify my family of this new sing-a-long wish now so they can spend the next few decades trying to coerce Eddie Vedder to attend my funeral. The tribute will be absolute shit if it doesn’t feature the appropriate baritone vocals.
