Good Man

The mourners huddled together in the pews as the last few bars of the deceased's favourite song streamed through the speakers. The man at the podium wiped his eyes and cleared his throat.

"He'll be missed by everyone. There's so much I could say.... He was a good man."

A door burst open. The funeral director ran a hand through her hair, muttering 'not again' as another man barged up to the front of the service.

"That's a really nice eulogy, and I'mma let you finish. But Matt W---- was a damned fine man!" He dropped the mic, and disappeared.
