Before I die, I’m going to arrange for a friend to take my phone, and after the funeral, text everybody to say “thanks for coming” and other assorted messages of appreciation.

Commentary:
Ah, the ultimate prank from beyond the grave! Nothing says 'rest in peace' quite like a posthumous text blast. Just imagine all the confusion and amusement that would ensue as friends and family receive heartfelt messages from the great beyond. The deceased might even become known as the ultimate party host, orchestrating one final gathering long after they've departed. It's a brilliant mix of sentiment and humor that's sure to leave everyone scratching their heads in wonder and appreciation.
