NEW ORLEANS — A New Orleans woman attended a final party in her honor, complete with a case of beer and a menthol cigarette.
The party was Miriam Burbank’s funeral, and WGNO reports the woman’s two daughters said their mother was so full of life that they wanted her funeral to reflect that.
The girls call their mother Mae Mae, and they said they worked with funeral directors to put together a funeral they thought their beloved mother would enjoy, and the result included cigarettes, beer, puzzles and New Orleans Saints themed fingernails.
