Tried to walk through the building, but this old man with a saxophone was shouting and this other guy who was riding around on a tricycle. Strange place

The organist played the hymns like dirges instead of uptempo, which upset my Aunt, but I am glad that they have kept my family for generations now and haven't lost a single urn.
