Also, when my Mother in law died about 3 years ago, I had chat with the Funeral Director about unusual funerals.
One he told me about was a Classical Musician who had died and had arranged with one of his close friends to play a concert piano in the crematorium. Both Hymns and incidental pieces throughout the service.
I think it was on the last piece that he started to drop in the odd Les Dawson moment, just occasionally so that the congregation at first felt a bit awkward and started to look at each other. By the end he was in full Les Dawson mode and everybody was crying with laughter.

Many years ago working on a merchant trade counter, we took a chance on taking a cheque…it was only when it bounced that we realised the cheque was drawn " for and on behalf of Firkham Hall"

On a similar note, for my father-in-law’s funeral we wanted to go out to something relevant. He had been in the RAF (as a regular) during WW2, and at that time the local crem. played all music on an organ (I assume for reasons of copyright); one of the available tunes was the Dambusters March, and we thought that would be appropriate - solemn but tuneful. What we had forgotten was that the intro is actually quite jolly and goes on for quite some time before the familiar theme comes in,
And the intro came over in classic “Reginald Dixon cinema” mode**. But it worked, and people left smiling (and a few laughs).
**you have to be of a certain age to appreciate this…LOL
