Buried or Cremated

[zwhit]

I'd prefer to be cremated. The only thing giving me pause is the religious part of me.

How so?

cremated and scattered on the lake i grew up on and love. that's exactly what my mother wanted and got. once u quit breathing, ur spirit/soul goes wherever it goes anyway is my belief. Guess i should sell my plot my granddad bought me- just don't see a reason for my family to go to the expense of a casket, funeral etc. my mother did insist that we have a celebration of her life, which was very cool, but also very expensive- but it was her wish and her money so.....did get to see a lot of people wouldn't have normally seen and heard some great stories about my mom, so i guess it was worth it. she was a great lady- over 300 people came- not sure what happened too me-lol

Always was told you couldn't inherit the kingdom if you were cremated. Looks like it was wrong after 2.3 seconds of Google research though

Yeah, I was gonna say. Lots of people die by fire.

Sky burial is about the only thing I wouldn't consider. That's just too much to ask friends and family to do after you're gone.

Thanks to everyone that took the time to post their experiences and opinions. It’s honestly helped me a great deal in deciding what to do with myself when I die. We are both gonna go the cremation route and she wants to figure out a way to wait until at least some of our ashes can be put together and then do something like having the kids sprinkle us somewhere. Romantic I guess but at the same time, like many of you said, it’s for them to release all the pressure of visiting a stone with our names on it. I don’t want to do that to my children. They don’t need a headstone to remember us.
I guess my biggest fear was picking the wrong one. Sounds stupid since I’m not religious but just in cause we do go somewhere after we die I didn’t want us to get stuck behind because we made a poor decision on what happened to our bodies. Sounds really lame after I say it but for whatever reason that was causing me a ton of grief. Ohwell it’s a done deal now.

THANK You again to all that responded. Means a lot as always!!!

I don't want a funeral or any event to mourn/celebrate my life. I would be ok put in a pine box and thrown in the ocean then set on fire. I've considered donation of my body to science. Probably should go that route.

I don’t think facing your mortality before it’s time is “lame” at all. Quite the contrary, it’s a sign of wisdom to care about yourself enough and your loved ones enough to plan things out before it’s too late.

Fwiw, I think you and the wifeys choice is a good one

Doesn't matter when you're dead you're dead, so might as well make it the easiest financially for the living
