This kind of thing was pretty common throughout history.

 

[Red Dead Redemption]

Before Miriam Burbank’s daughters buried her, they decided to have one last party in memory of their mom for friends and family.

The daughters told local reporters that when the funeral parlor asked what they wanted to do for their mother’s funeral, they decided to remember her as she lived.

Which in Burbank’s case meant sunglasses, menthol cigarettes, a case of Busch, a bottle of single malt whiskey, and two disco balls.
