I often romanticize this thought

A family friend once told me something I've never forgotten.
Your life is an invitation to your funeral.
So yes, I do think about things like that, especially since death is a frequent subject of meditation for me. I'm Catholic and the closing line of the Hail Mary prayer is "Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of death."
And I'm sorry, not to do a complete 180 on the mood here, especially after what I just said, but the way you put it in the question details, the first thing that came to mind for me was this scene from Futurama...

I don't know maybe you should send out invites.
Text everyone you know and say, “hey, are you coming to my funeral?”
Send a legit banner with a date and time. Have them RSVP
If they don’t respond and missed the date message them, “you missed my funeral…”
They’d be like, what?
Not really. I would imagine not many as I am an introvert and know few people. Aside from my family, my boyfriend and close friends, I think that's about it.
Please don't think that no one will come to your funeral..
Whatever has upset you, I hope you find the strength to get over it

Honestly, it will be more people than I'd like it to be. Ideally, I wouldn't want a funeral. I'd want to be overlooked. I'd want my death to be an absence that is never felt. An absence that isn't mourned.
Nah, I am more interested in who wouldn't come. I have a collection of odd fella's and weirdo's who I love and love me. I wonder who would pull up and be all um... never mind. LOL It would just be some kind of celebration of life kind of thing anyway as I am to be creamated.
I already know.
No one.
There will be no funeral for me.
I have left instructions to dispose of my remains in the least expensive manner possible at the time of my death.
The living shall go on living.
I've recently been to a funeral in Philippines. Them people know how to die. There was free food, booz, people were gambling, even a bloody karaoke machine. I'll have a Filipino funeral, at this point it's better question who won't be there.

At one time it would’ve been huge my company, my family and friends and other relatives most of them but when you get older things change the relative drop off some family and your work situation
I don't.
The fewer, the better.
But that day this won't be my business any longer.
I never think of that. I don't much care what happens after my death.
i dont want anyone to come, dont come to me when im dead, come to me when im alive mofos 😂
No. I don't care if they do or not. I just hope they can move forward and be happy.
If just those closest to me are there I would be fine with that.
I wouldn’t be surprised if nobody showed up. Maybe I’ll just make sure that nobody does by not having a funeral
No, I know nobody would come, and that's fine, I wouldn't go to anyone's funeral, either
I really don't give a fuck who comes to my funeral, but I do worry about having money or a policy to bury my broke ass.
No. Because at that point I'll be dead. I'm on to bigger and better things.
No. Cause I know no one but my parents'd show.
I seriously doubt anyone will come.
my wife and kids. Thats about it.
I've thought about it.
Never really thought of that so no.
I'm not having one.
