I'm forever partial to Reaper Man. It moved me and was the first TP book that I read. In fact, I used a quote from it at my father's funeral:
In the Ramtop village where they dance the real Morris dance, for example, they believe that no one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away -- until the clock he wound up winds down, until the wine she made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone's life, they say, is only tthe core of actual existence.
