Humor...I Need Humor...

I don't how funny ya'll will find this, but in a time of grief I found it hysterical.

My grandfather died recently without making any pre-arrangements. The difficulty that has made for our family has had my dad tellin us his own plans. He wants his ashes to be sealed in a tin can, then we are to go to his hometown and play a game called Tin-canny-oh in an alley. This is a game like Hide-and-Seek where the "it" person spots a hiding person, calls 'em out, then both "it" and "found" person race to the can. If the found person gets there first, they kick it and yell "tin-canny-oh" and "it" person has to stay it.
At my g-pap's funeral were all cryin our hearts out, even my dad who wasn't close to him (i think he was cryin for my mom and nan more so.) Dad's leans over to me during the tears and whispers "Think about how fun it will be to kick me around in a can."
