Today, I was at my grandma's funeral. While giving the eulogy, I accidentally mixed up "You will be missed" and "You won't be forgotten" and instead said "You won't be missed." FML

Today, while at my aunt's funeral, my grandma who has terrible memory loss asked me whose funeral we were at. I had to explain to her that her daughter had died. FML

Today, I was mistaken for an employee at my grandmother's funeral. There were only twelve of us there, all family. FML

Today, I attended the wrong funeral. I spent twenty minutes trying to hide and walk away without being too conspicuous. FML

Today, my grandpa died. I called my grandma to make sure she was going to be fine. After talking over the phone for 30 minutes or so, I told her goodbye and said, out of habit, "Say hi to grandpa for me". FML

Today, I was bored out of my mind at work. I told my coworker he was lucky to be leaving early. I forgot the reason of his early departure was to go to his grandfather's funeral. FML

Today, at my grandad's funeral, as my dad and aunt poured his ashes into the hole, a strong gust of wind blew the ashes into my throat. I choked on my grandad. What made it worse was that the vicar had to stop her prayer to laugh. FML

Today, my caring way too much about proper grammar got out of hand when I corrected my girlfriend during a talk about her dying grandmother. FML

Today, I ran into an old friend. I asked her how she was doing, then asked, "And your mum?" Just as the words escaped my lips, I remembered her mum died a few years ago. Trying to save face, I messed up again and blurted, "She still in the same graveyard?" FML

Today, at work, I misheard a customer telling me a story. To be polite, I did a slight laugh and nodded my head. She actually told me her mum had died. FML

Today, at work, I served a customer who looked so much like my grandma that I thought it actually was her. Then I remembered she died 6 months ago. I had to serve customers with a smile on my face while choking back tears for the rest of the day. FML

"You won't be missed...because you're still here with us in spirit." There. All fixed.

I accidentally said "chanks" to an asian customer the other day instead of "cheers" and "thanks". It's easily done!

That sucks. :( So sorry OP! But surely your family realizes that it wasn't intentional. You were upset and got a little tongue-tied. It happens. I'm sure you rectified the situation and/or apologized. Hopefully things turned out okay for you. And sorry for your loss.

"You won't be missed because you will always be in our hearts". Sorry for your loss by the way, and may she rest in peace.

That really does suck. It's hard to give a good speech when you're upset. What could be more upsetting than Grandma's funeral? Sorry for your loss OP.
