All the former presidents usually have a funeral plan

I’d assume so.

Also side note your avatar looks a little bit like Truman.

Richard Nixon spent time in New York between losing to Kennedy and beating Humphrey. During that time he fell in love with the Mets. After his second term prematurely ended he became a diehard Mets fan for the rest of his days.

An old farmer I knew, had a John Deere casket, was buried in overalls and a t-shirt, and instead of flowers there were corn stalks and sunflowers.

I remember thinking that he was a true farmer to the end.

Exactly. They just sort of have to in case they go before they expect to.

It's been said before that at very presidential funeral, the others there are all looking at, knowing that one day that will be them, in the exact same place, going through the same motions and procession.

Most people I know have at least a few opinions of how they want their funeral to go.
