Garbage collecting functions

[Unlimited_Objects (Unlimited)]

Hello, I am looking for a way to garbage collect functions that are still running. For example, tables, instances, etc. can be garbage collected by removing all references to them. How would I garbage collect a function that is still running? By running I mean that it has a loop that never ends.

		task.wait(1)
	end
end

TestFunction()
