A Different Perspective
There are plenty of different ways to honor the loved ones in our lives who have passed on. However, not everyone will agree on what’s appropriate. This man and his group of friends took an honorary shot in the parking lot outside the funeral of their best friend. Someone outside their friend group saw what they were doing and was totally offended.
The woman who saw them taking shots later approached our storyteller on Facebook to tell him how disrespectful she thought they were. The truth of the matter is that their friend always told them, “If I die, take a shot for me at my funeral.” The funny thing is, they were being respectful of their friend by taking a shot, since it’s what he would have wanted. Grief is complicated!
