Now there is a 3rd option on what to do with your body (hopefully deceased). You can be composted. How thrilling...

It seems to be a west coast thing at the moment.

Body farms have been an option too.

Cremated without ceremony for me. Less stress for Cathy. Hope I have all the papers ready to avoid probate.

Why don’t you seek the advise of an attorney? Next to a durable power of attorney, advance directive and a document with all account access information, a will is one of the most important papers.

Or you could just ask for advise here.

I never asked here. Cathy is an attorney. We have it covered.

I guess just put me in the ground. Nothing fancy cause I’m not there.

I saw where some companies now will take some of your ashes and actually make diamonds out of it. They do it for your pets too. Then you can “wear” your loved one in the form of a ring or necklace. “Nice diamond ring you have there Jenny!” “Thanks, it’s Lassie”

No ceremony for the passing of a human life is very sad. 'Don't care what you believe. Nobody's gonna notice how "noble" you were.

I told my wife to go the cheapest rout possible. Funerals and weddings are a waste of money.

You can put 'em in a shotgun shell too; animal or human. 'Take them on your next hunt. The world's gone nuts.

I just don't believe in funerals, when I kick my fat butt goes in the incinerator and the family will get together for a BBQ maybe. Not making funeral director richer. To each his own though.

Cremation it'll save space in the local National Cemetery. Composting isn't an option yet in national cemeteries.

Make sure your survivor gets at least 10 death certificates.

Family cemetery is in Porter Springs Texas.

No one will ever go there. Just cremate me.

We finalized our wills last week.

I originally wanted to be buried but I’ll take a cremation. My wife 100% does not want to be cremated.

Not sure if it matters or not, but I like to think I would like to see my ashes scattered across a mesquite flat or mountain range somewhere


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I used to tell people that I would not have any life insurance. When they are standing around my grave crying, I want em to mean it.

Burial at sea from a US Navy vessel. You don’t get to pick the location but your next will receive gps coordinates and the US Flag that was flying that day. DONE

I agree.
I just did mine last week for $10.
Wife’s job is paying for the rest.
