I came across caring.com for some appropriate funeral songs.
I hope this helps

From Bartók Concerto for Orchestra, Third movement called Elegia, sounded on while burying my mother, according to her wish.
This will suit me presumably also.
My son I don't know, what would have been his wish.
Myself had to select something so onto his funeral:
Buxtehude: Membra Jesu Nostri, VI. Ad cor
I listened to this disk again and again while he committed his suicide.
I did not know it of course by the time he is being made.
Because wretchedly, hopelessly I'm stupid.

Anything by J S Bach has to be good. I like my music to be measured, so Mozart is a bit flowery for me (too many notes).
I should note that in demanding Beethoven's 3rd Symphony in its entirety, I have also required that it be played on my best system, and set aside money for a proper wake afterwards. Sadly, my other half (who does not appreciate Beethoven) commented, "They'll need it."

We agree in this totally.Anything by J S Bach has to be good.
Mozart is a genius undoubtedly however.
He did not recognise a memorable anecdote's, Mozart own works always.
Asked it once, listening to his own work, this entirely good, who formed it?

Hmm, originally I finished this list with Waylon Jennings "are you shure you want whats left of me", one of my old time favorites that would get a new meaning
