Default "Bury me with..."



He's on the highway to heaven.

David Morales Colon, 22, who was shot to death last week in Puerto Rico, had asked his family to avoid a traditional funeral when he died.

So morticians propped him up on his trusty Honda, dressed for his last road trip in shades, cap and a riding shirt.

"He loved his motorcycle. It made him feel free from his worries," a mourner said. "We all know he will be happy riding for eternity."

sad to hear that he died at such a young age. The funeral idea is very cool.

They should have buried Ted Kennedy behind the wheel of an old Chevy with a case of beer next to him. "

I know its sick but that made me laugh.

Because he probably knew he drove like a nut on bikes and had it coming.

Except that is not how he died.

I have planned my funeral and i'm 23. Is that a bad thing? I don't think so. Cremation is the way to go for me. I don't want a some preacher at my funeral either. I have told my family and my gf this. You never know when it may be your time...
