"Final" irony

Was it six months ago or longer that I developed a Final Wishes form, designed to help friends in my little hometown share The Conversation with loved ones?  It reviews what a person wants at the end of their life & after they've gone.   Basic information, like who you'd like involved in any memorial celebration, what to do with your body, songs & music, even if there are any final words you'd like to share.  As straightforward & simple as I could make it. 

I am forever beseeching friends, pleasant acquaintances & total strangers to have The Conversation, to share final wishes, NOW - it might not be possible later.  Now, for us, is too late.  Mim isn't up to it.  

An irony that goes straight to my heart.
