Funeral Question

Funeral Question
My father died last week and the funeral is in a couple of weeks. We were never close, mainly due to him walking out when I was in my teens, we got together a bit over the last 10 years or so but we only met 3 or 4 times a year. I have been asked by the daughter of his second wife (a woman I have never met, just a voice on the phone) if I want the minister to say anything from me at the funeral. The family seem very religious and I don’t want to add more upset at this time, but I really don’t know what to say. “I think it’s a load of superstitious rubbish” probably won’t go down well!
Any suggestions?

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups
