A resident of Spain forbade her relatives to come to her funeral and published an “exclusive” list of invited guests in the newspaper. Writes about this Daily Star.
So, Maria Paz Fuentes Fernandez died on June 2. She used her obituary in the local print media to address friends and family. “Since I have not been in contact with my blood family for a long time, I declare in my last will and testament that only the people mentioned below can attend my funeral service, be it in a funeral home, church or cemetery,” the woman wrote.
The message was followed by 15 names and a signature: “For everyone else who never cared about my life: I want you to continue to live away from me as before.” The obituary was posted in the El Progreso newspaper.
In early June, a 75-year-old resident of the Indian city of Jaggayapeta returned home the next day after relatives deemed her dead from COVID-19 and mistakenly cremated another person's body. The husband confused the body of the deceased woman with his wife, whom he simply did not find in the hospital bed.
