I knew another priest who loved making "wife bad" boomer jokes at funerals whenever a surviving spouse died. Lots of "Her husband has been enjoying paradise in heaven...and now his wife is there..." and "st. Peter gives a test to enter heaven, you need to spell 'love'. St. Peter wants a break and gives this task to a man who sees his wife coming to the pearly gates. He tells his wife that she must spell a word before entering heaven. His wife asks what the word is. The man says 'onamonapia'"
Uncomfortable forced laughter.

Those definitely got some uncomfortable laughs
Where are you finding all these awful priests? Are you secretly the pope?
I was a funeral director. I got to know all the religious leaders in my town.
