A family has found themselves going viral on social media after they laid their beloved grandma to rest in an M&M's-themed casket.
And despite sounding bizarre to some, this story really is much sweeter once you get down to its center.
Taking to TikTok to share pictures of his grandmother's send-off, Scott Roundtree (@itsmeroundtree), the social media user captioned his touching post: "Grandma, my [heart] you can now rest peacefully. I love you."
The grandson then quipped: "[P.S.] you were right we all loved your casket".
The touching video - set to Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth's 'See You Again' - showed Scott and his family gathered around his grandmother's coffin while wearing M&M's t-shirts and baseball caps. The family members could be seen smiling as they came together to remember their beloved matriarch - who sounds like an incredible person with impeccable taste.
Check out the post below:Closer details of the casket show the giant blue M&M's character lying peacefully with its eyes closed, as they cradle smaller candies - each with a family member's name inscribed on them.
Since sharing the touching post to TikTok, it has amassed more than 1.3 million views in 23 hours.
And in the comments section, one person just had to ask: "I think this is amazing. Can I ask why she chose an M&M casket? Rather it was just for enjoyment or a big reason?"
Roundtree was happy to respond, writing: "My uncle made it by hand. And she designed it years ago. She loved how it turned out. It sat in her hour for years."
Other commenters were also quick to flood Roundtree with messages of support and share their amazement at the casket design.
"This was an amazing human being, I can tell," wrote one impressed viewer.
A second added: "This is so special! My sister-in-law passed away in May 2022. She loved and collected M&M's. I hope she and your grandma have met up in heaven."
And a third commented: "That is absolutely beautiful and unique. Sorry for your loss but absolutely beautiful."
"Wow! Her casket is incredible!!! My condolences to you and your family and all her loved ones," wrote a fourth.
And in another response, Roundtree revealed that - yes - his grandma was laid to rest with M&M's inside her casket.
What a truly amazing sense of humor and joy for life!
Our thoughts go out to Roundtree's family at this time.
