Question about your funeral. ???

[Quasar44]

Sorry to bring this up but most here are past the age of 40

Do you plan on being buried or cremated??

Neither one sounds very pleasant


Rotting /decaying in the ground vs super hot fire

Do whatever you want with my body. I'll be dead.

 

[The Irish Ram]

I'll be laid next to my Dad in the family plot.

 

[JoeB131]

My plan is to have my corpse spring-loaded so that if some future archeologist digs me up, I'll leap menacingly from the coffin!

Bury me head first and halfway down so the world can kiss my ass.

Or better yet...

 

[JOSweetHeart]

At the end of the day, doing whatever is cheaper is what makes the most sense to me and I can't see that being a burial when a burial requires a casket, a ground space for it to go in and then a rock with my name on it to go on top of the burial space.

God bless you always!!!

You are Jewish and you ask this question?

You must be buried. I will as well.

I plan to be cremated with my ashes interred in USMB Headquarters

 

[TNHarley]

I want to be cremated. But I want to be put in something in nature. Like my son plant a new tree in the yard with my ashes mixed in.

I just paid for the funerals for the wife and myself.....We already had the plots but it all came to 26K.

And that is with no viewing or ceremony.......Just open the grave, box us up, toss us in, cover us up.

We both got mid-grade coffins. She got a mid-grade waterproof vault. Mine looked like a septic tank with no holes.....26K!

That does not include the death date engraving for the stone which runs about $400.00 each but usually the interest earned will take care of that.

You lost a child?

Sorry for the confusion

some of my father's ashes are amongst the mattatuck forest, here in CT. he hunted there & also being an italian ... picking wild button mushrooms is a thing, so he collected them from there & would put them in his old army corp duffel bag from WW2.

Where it will no doubt serve as an inspiration for the Mods.

Oh good. I was about to have a sad for you.

You go right ahead and do that. Just know that you will be subjected to others whims.......

 

[JustAnotherNut]

I'd rather donate my body to science and when they are done with it, then put what's left out for bird food, or like what Harley said...to fertilize a tree or something of the sort. But in some way to continue the 'circle of life'

 

[TNHarley]

Oh good. I was about to have a sad for you.

I got sad just thinking about it lol

 

[odanny]

My body will be cremated, my head will cryogenically preserved for future generations.
