Sammie: Whats in the box mum?
Mum (Whispers): Uncle George.
Sammie: Well what’s he doing in there! I always knew he was a loony!

(Said during the minute of silence at Uncle George’s funeral service)

Mama? How’d they fit Papa into that BOX?!”

PS: he was cremated.)

When your dad died, did you put him out in the backyard?
