PREP FOR THE INEVITABLE A FEW MINUTES TO CA. 30 YEARS FROM NOW (PAUL BAIN, AKA “VAIN,” MARTIN)

Services by Hurley Funeral Home, Devine, Texas & maybe something in Seguin if the family desires. (Already arranged.)

A simple coffin (I have already built my simple pine box according to necessary specs.) and no embalming, finally placed in the cemetery beside Betsy’s plot at St. Joseph’s cemetery, Comal, TX near Grandpa Paul & Grandma Kneuper.

Would like for Darryl Birkenfeld, Nazareth, TX to “do the services” in Devine and Comal (& Seguin?).

Marvel Maddox to read “Mining the Mother Lode” by Andy Wilkinson

Quote on a/”our” tombstone: 

“To live, we must daily break the body and shed the blood of Creation. When we do this knowingly, lovingly, skillfully, reverently, it is a sacrament. When we do it ignorantly, greedily, clumsily, destructively, it is a desecration. In such desecration we condemn ourselves to spiritual and moral loneliness, and others to want.” Wendell Berry (I have now added more but need my wife Betsy’s approval.)

Music to be played while viewing photos during meals, etc. in Devine (and Seguin?).  (Especially that music which is in italics and bold below!) :
