The medical school didn't want my body. I'm too old and tough for their students to cut into. A friend's mother donated her body to the school, and after the students were through with her, she was cremated and the ashes given to the family.
Here locally there is a "Green" cemetery.
A family put it in. Just a wooded piece of land that the hole is dug and your rapped in cardboard and stuck in the ground and the grub worms do the rest.
I'll pass on that.
I attended a burial today for a wonderful 85 yr old navy vet. Flag drapped casket.
Two navy men played taps and folded the flag. A short ceremony but very respectful.
I'm planning on cremation and just toss my ashes in my ex wife face...done !!!
