Coffin-Maker Dead Serious About Karaoke
KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - A Malaysian coffin-maker got his final wish when his family and friends serenaded his body with some of his favorite old Mandarin and Thai hits from the 1960s and 70s.
``He had been telling us that his passing away should be celebrated with a karaoke session and merry-making,'' Teoh Hock Tiam's brother, Hock Weng, told The Star newspaper.
``We did not take it seriously until he reminded us about it minutes before he died.''
Teoh was treated to a two-hour karaoke session before he was sent on to his cremation, the newspaper reported on Friday.
