What do you think you remembered for when you die?

[reecejackox]

Just reading about Maradona and what he will be remembered for so just wondering what do you think people will remember you for?

On the DIS it’ll be being single and being one of the few who likes country music.

 

[DLgal]

If all I am remembered for is being a good mom, that's good enough for me.

Hey, now wait a minute-lol! Although I am married,,I am a big fan of country music, so you aren't alone!
I hope that people will remember me as a kind person, a creative person, and someone who tried to take time to stop and 'smell the roses', whenever possible!. And that I will be remembered as a good daughter, good granddaughter, good Mom , and good wife.

That I was the one who always remembered to restock the toilet paper. Boy are they gonna miss me that first time they run out!

I am not sure I will be remembered. I don’t have children, my sister doesn’t have children, so we are the end of the family line. If I am retired, I probably won’t be interacting with a lot of people on a regular basis. So the few people I am acquainted with will probably hear the news, say that’s too bad, and go on with their lives. I would like to be remembered for being kind and making people laugh and enjoy themselves.

Wait, your single? How the heck would we know that?

 

[DisneyJamieCA]

I hope I’m remembered for being a good mom, wife, daughter and friend.

In the greater good, I don’t really know. I volunteer and give back, but nothing extraordinary. But I’m ok if I’m not remembered by anybody but my family and close friends.

I do a great imitation of a chicken. I used to be the chicken lady on a local radio station way back in the day...

 

[NannyBeBe]

I will be remembered as a good mom; and that I loved my dogs and the birds that visited my yard each day.

(Bolding above mine.) I have kids, so have that, but the reality is I think most of the impact we have in this world is "current" not things we are remembered for later. If/when I'm remembered I'd like to be remembered the same way, but mostly I hope that is how I'm known now!

I had the chance to really think about it when one of my former co-workers passed away. She had MS and had retired a couple years earlier and moved over to the greater Tampa area where her sister lived. She lived on her own, and when she passed, no one knew for several days. It was very sad. Then the people who worked closely with her for ten years just said, oh, how sad, and nothing.

It really kind of put things in perspective for me, since I am currently living solo and my sister is about an hour and a half away. I told my sister I was going to make sure I texted her once a day, with something funny (she’s been going through a lot of work stress) and I call it my Still Alive and Kicking text. There has been a lot of good texting material between the election and the virus. We have actually had more conversations and laughed a lot, and I hope that is what she would remember if I go first.

There’s only one chicken lady




If you know, you know..

 

[buzznina]

I am one that really does not care what other people think and live my life the way I think is best for me and my family. So in a nut shell, I do not give it a thought.

I lived my life for chickens.....I was also known as the "Chicken lady" at my poultry disease research job.

Well, my first instinct was to say I'd be remembered for being the crazy family member that every family seems to have. But on thinking, I really just want people to laugh at a funny story about me or say I was kind. That's all. I won't have a grave to visit; I'm going in with my Mom's ashes, no plaque or anything so in time nobody will even remember I'm there. But yeah, have a laugh on me or at my expense.

 

[low-key]

The Magic of me, is different groups will remember me for different things, few know the whole picture

 

[China Expat]

I hope to be remembered for being a good mom, a teacher of many thousands of students at home and abroad, my robust laugh, my passion for volunteer work with dogs and elephants, my insatiable travel lust and passports with stamps from every continent (except Antarctica), and for standing tall for what I believe in.

May I respectfully ask why? I worked in funeral service for a time and I've never heard of anyone being interred anonymously. I'm not critical, just curious.
