Teds' children, children-in-law and grandchildren all show up (Robin's stepfamily). Lilly and Marshall's children and grandchildren all show up too. Upon Ted and Robin's request, the funeral is more like a celebration of their successful lives and their triumphs over adversity. The stepchildren place the blue French horn in Robin's casket. Penny places the yellow umbrella in Ted's casket and says quietly: "Goodbye, Dad. Give this to Mom when you meet her." They also place a book of their memoirs titled: "How I Met Your Mother…and Ended Up with Your Aunt Robin" in his casket.

We see the epitaphs:

Tracy McConnell Mosby (1984-2024) Wonderful Mother, Wife, Friend. May She Rest in Peace. Gone Too Soon But Always There in Our Hearts.

Theodore Mosby (1978-2069) Wonderful Grandfather, Father, Husband, Friend. May He Rest in Peace

Robin Charles Scherbatsky Mosby (1980-2069) Wonderful Step grandmother, Stepmother, Wife, Aunt, Friend. May She Rest in Peace.

To close off the funeral, Luke and Penny play "Let's Go To The Mall" on the badass advanced portable stereo system. Robin's ghost shows up embarrassed at first and then chuckles realizing what a wonderful life she had. Ted's ghost laughs too and embraces Robin. "15-year old me would have been all over you!"
