Not actually at a funeral but a few days later as we were clearing my mother in law's house.
We had taken the six year granddaughter, mostly as my wife adores her and I thought it would take her mind off the job; also to keep my wife's brother in line as he could be an arsehole at times and there had already been arguments over who got what (a toy train for God sakes and he was a 50 year old).
Anyway, the Granddaughter didn't really understand what we were doing. So we kept saying, well if you want that (or you think your 5 & 3 sisters might like it - there was a lot of teddies), you can have it. Your Great Gran would have liked that.
So she starts collecting all the bling, little pottery knicknacks, soft toys, pretty much anything that looked like treasure to a six year old. She then started ferrying this to the car singing "I love free stuff" (a song she made up - you can guess how it goes).
By the end, my wife and I have tears running down our face we are laughing so much.
tldr: we have hysterics laughter at the granddaughter house looting her great grandmother's house whilst singing "I love free stuff".
