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 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. 407?

Take my organs for somebody else, then use me for coyote bait, that way I can keep killing them

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. Same thing here. Life insurance is for suckers.

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 We did ours yesterday...

My mom was cremated 2 years ago. First in the family. Takes a while to get to the actual process because of state regs. She's buried next to my grandparents. Cemetery said you can bury 3 or 6 (I don't remember which) urns for every grave spot. Guess that's where I'll end up too.

I don’t begrudge anyone’s wishes regarding their earthly body, but I doubt that I’ll ever understand it. I do not care what happens to my physical body, once it dies. At that point, I’m done with it.

Scattered my father-in-law's ashes at his favorite fishing spot on Bayou Bernard. I say hello George every time I fish that spot.

I told my wife the other day that I thought I wanted to be cremated. Heck, she went ahead and got me an appointment for next week Wednesday.

Both my in-laws want their ashes in the San Marcos River. There's a nice bridge over it on the new tollway between Seguin and Austin. Speed limit's 80mph ya know.

Cremation, I don't want my body held somewhere with a headstone where my offspring would get guilty about not visiting. No need to memorialize it. Spread the ashes wherever - off the Faust Street Bridge over the Guadalupe, in the Laguna Madre, over some South TX brush, under the sky ride near Sunken Gardens, by Founders Oak at Landa Park, over the waterfall at Hamilton's Pool and on and on . . .
My brother's ashes are in Lake Somerville. He loved it there.
