Creamation.

I don't want a service.

Instead, have a party, share stories, laugh.

Scatter my ashes somewhere overlooking a beach.

Meeeee toooo. Not a religious person in life and have requested no service. Party, music and yes...share stories. Chosen music...led zepplin stairway to heaven (hope it’s there) Aerosmith tunes, Beatles, many of my favorites on my playlist. And yes, scatter me over a beach 🏝

Donating my body to UNMC (Uni. of Nebr. Medical Center). After they are finished, my rmains will be cremated and my ashes will be placed with husband in our Church.

Cremation.  I already bought my place in a columbarium.  It'll save a lot of money for my kids.

Cremation for my family too. My in laws put their request in writing back in the 60's and we have followed that practice ever since.

My dad died last month and his remains are at our family business building, in his office.  He wanted his ashes to be scattered with those of his beloved dog in a local river, but that is against the law now, so I have to hire a boat to go three miles out from land to lay them to rest, just to comply with regulations.  But that will be done this summer.  I vote for cremation for myself - I am going to pre-pay it so that my family doesn't have to deal with it. My dad didn't want any type of memorial, and no obituary in the paper.  Same goes for me.

Cremation of course. My parents were creamated and their ashes are sprinkled on my property where I live. They are always with me. My ashes will be sprinkled in my beautiful lake where I love to boat.

Cremation for me too, sprinkle me somewhere beautiful in the mountains- Go ahead have a party or whatever my son wats..   My Dad just passed and he had purchased a mausoleum crypt. The day we put him in , and they shut the door, creeped me out horribly. I never go there. My Mom has one too- Never for me.  Many members of my family in cemeteries, grandparents, etc. I have never once gone there to visit. No one I know ever goes to the cemetery, that they have ever told me...  

My DH said for him, whatever is on sale! Lol!
