Very sorry to read about the passing of your dad. I don't know much about islamic traditions with regards to funerals, but would your dad also qualify for virgins in the afterlife? Or is that only reserved for fighters?
Why do you think that I got a miserly lifestyle? Not that I mind who comes to my funeral. Many people owe me fast sums of money, and I don't think they want to pay my wife or kids the money back.
Hard to believe it's one year already Ketch ... can hardly believe it !! My thoughts are with you as you were/are a devoted son.
... but then again it will be six years for me since Lord Calypso ([size=8pt]TM[/size] Rev) in another week .... even though one's life changes forever .... time marches on for sure !!!
Have a good celebration/memorial dearie with your Mom and family ..but do keep an eye on your Mom !!!
