Lance's Funeral
Posted: Sat Dec 27, 2008 2:58 pm
I was attending a funeral for Lance. My mother was with me and some others I am not sure of but they were family members. The funeral was being held in a gymnasium type room and we were looking for bleacher seats. Finally we sat down from a woman I know named Sebrena and we had to move some clothing that had been left there.
I knew Lance had been killed in an accident but it was not work related.
My Pastor came to what was to be the pulpit to begin the service. He was very weak (IRL he has been very ill for some time now). There were men there by his side just in case he needed them.
I could see Lance's family seated near the front. There was a black man with short hair and it was pulled in tight curls close to his head. (mentioning this because he really stood out in the dream) He leaned to and said something to Lance's uncle and then turned back and looked at the crowd, smiling.
Lance's mother got up and was walking toward us. I thought she may be coming to get us to set with the family.
I am now seeing outside and there is a portion of the parking lot partioned off for a marching band. I thought oh the band is coming because Lance was in the band in high school and they are going to honor him by marching.
A man comes in and he is from one of the branches of the Military. He has this pressure hose in his hand. He is supposed to do something in the funeral also. (Lance is not in the military, however his father was) So while waiting the military man see things that need to be cleaned up and he is going to tidy the place a bit with the pressure hose. This didn't seem odd at all in the dream. He is demonstrating the hose for us and telling us how powerful it is. He sprays a painted (whitish I think) paneled door and the paint on it begins to draw up and I know it is just going to peel off. He sprays other things that also begin to draw up and peel off.
My Pastor is on the stage/make shift pulpit and he has this display. The display is like one found in department stores that have cards, jewelry, etc. on it and it spins on a base. On the display are things from Lance's life they are displayed behind plastic. T-shirts, mementos of all the things Lance was in during his life and Pastor is pointing and speaking about them. I know Lance's mom has prepared this.
During this dream I hear the word lichen spoken to me. When I awoke the word lichen was spoken to me just prior to waking.
Blessings,
Joy
