I was thinking the same thing. I have instructed my daughter to drape one of my quilts over the coffin but I don't want one to be buried with me. I surely won't need it where I'm going and I don't mean the hot place.
That's funny! It makes the ones "left behind" feel good - doesn't do a thing for the one inside after death, although it's
comforting to them prior to the event.
