When I pass - do me one favor. It's not much of a favor. Just...don't tell the cameras anything about "my smile." I'd rather you just admit you're not surprised, I wasn't worth much, no loss, anything - anything but "I remember his smile." "His smile lit up the room." "Wow, really? I can't believe he's gone. Isn't that something. Wow, really?" "He had this way, you know? Lots of ... of positive energy."
Telling the cameras you remember his or her smile best is akin to a roadside memorial. More dignified to die with no witnesses than to be remembered with no substance. Hate would be by far preferred.
But then you don't get many requests granted...
