Anyone besides me have to bust out Method Man at 2 separate grandma's...
funerals?

See, both of my grandmothers have passed on; one Jewish, the other Roman Catholic.

Little did I know that "the Lord's Prayer" is recited at both; the wake for a Roman Catholic and the wake for a Jew (being conducted by a Conservative Rabbi).

Ya know, the whole "Valley of Death" shtick.

I'm just curious if anyone else when through the transmigrational religious chamber such as I, and found a hell of a lot (bad wording? :) in common.

I must say, the Jewish funeral emphasized the "positive" aspects of life (on earth) to a much greater degree.
