What a cute video. I showed it to my 8 year old granddaughter and she could relate. She just lost a fish last week and it was sent off in style via the old flusher. Not quite with this much fanfare, but she misses him all the same. The video made us laugh and laugh.

We used to have New Orleans-style fish funerals. Our son would play "Taps" on his trombone while we followed behind him in a little parade around the house. My daughter would carry the dead fish on a napkin, then everyone would cram into the bathroom and flush him. No eloquent speeches, though, like little Maya.
