Buzzy’s dying wish doesn’t mean diddly squat.
I want proof that she even made such a wish, especially since it goes directly against what she’s said in the past.
Heh. Dems assigned dopey AOC to carry this lame argument
Confession time...
My sister-in-law is a dominating know-it-all, who really doesn’t know much.
When her older brother was dying due to pancreatic cancer she was running around and arranging the funeral when it wasn’t her job to do so, and let me tell you she had an extravaganza planned. I might also add that her husband is tight-fisted and I’m pretty darn sure that she wouldn’t have forked out that much money for this expensive planning.
So my brother-in-law passed away and she breaks out this notebook at the funeral home with all these elaborate items to pull together.
My nephew who was footing the bill was really not in any financial shape to pay for this extravaganza that his aunt had prepared.
So I stepped in and honestly... I lied. I told everybody at that table that my brother-in-law and I had a long conversation regarding his last wishes as he lay dying at hospital.
We had no such conversation but I trimmed that extravaganza down to a very manageable amount of money for my nephew’s sake, who would have been left footing a gigantic bill. Nephew had 4 mouths to feed, worked 2 jobs... etc... his siblings were in even worse shape.
We went for the sheet metal casket painted in black with the gold trimming, which was the least expensive casket they had at the funeral parlor, and not the walnut model picked out by her highness.
She wanted this Monument of glorification I told them that as a veteran all he wanted was a Vermont marble Tombstone that all veterans get.
So I think I did the right thing... But it just goes to show that conversations don’t have to necessarily occur to be passed off as last wishes. And from personal experience I think that whoever came up with this story about Ruth and her last wishes is probably like me... full of s***.
Do I regret what I did? No. I saved my nephew’s financial butt on that one. He had a lot more things to think about besides paying for his daddy’s funeral who should have actually been able to pay for it out of his own pocket but never really thought about doing that and set nothing aside. There’s a lot of things that he didn’t think about doing... and I didn’t want to see that burden placed up on my nephew’s shoulders.
