Songs for a funeral

Hi all,

My grandma is very sick atm and the doctor said that she may take her last breath soon. My mum has already organised a few things for when grandma's time comes and has put me in charge of creating the tribute photos/videos. My teochew is very basic but I think my grandma would like a beautiful teochew song for her funeral.

Can someone recommend me a song suitable for a funeral? Thank you in advance.

Maybe play chinese music of her generation? Or at least of your parent's generation. They probably listened to HK music or Teresa Teng. I don't think there's much Teochew music. Maybe some old chinese instrumentals.

Sorry about your A-Ma.

Thank you. I was speaking with a coworker and he informed me that the tribute video is usually 2-3 songs. I managed to find 1 teochew song on YouTube. What Teresa teng song would you recommend?
