Cremated or buried?

[Gail T AGAIN]

Not sure how to do a poll but I know I don't want a funeral, I figure people just come to see what you look like dead and say how good of a person you were even if you were not. what is your idea of your permenant spot afterlife?

 

[Serena]

I want cremated and spread over the ocean. Haven't decided where yet.

I'm donated anything I can.

 

[Pam]

I'm with you, Gail T - if people can't call or come see me when I'm living, I'm not giving them the chance to gawk at me when I'm dead!!

DH and I want to be cremated. I don't care what happens to my ashes - I obviously won't be needing them at that point!

I don't like any of the choices. I don't want cremated, I don't want a traditional burial, and I don't want propped up anywhere. Heck, I don't even want to die.

In the area I live in, not many people want to be cremated anymore. That idiot that just let all those loved ones sit and rot instead of being cremated like he was paid to do, has left a lot of people unwilling to do that. (Tri-State Crematory)

 

[Serena]

I can imagine Shannon, that was horrible.

And I'd rather live as well. lol

 

[nancyj_pa]

I want to be cremated. I want my children to go on a cruise and sprinkle my ashes over the water. DH wants a traditional funeral and burial, preferably in a vault.

 

[dizneenut]

I want a traditional burial.

 

[Mskanga]

I want to first donate every single organ in my body that can save someone else, then cremate the rest , then throw me in the ocean so I can swim forever and I want my family to have a big party to celebrate my new life!

 

[nhrenee]

I'm donating my body to science. Hopefull I'll be really old but even if it's just for anatomy that's ok. But I do want some kind of memorial celebration, maybe an Irish wake. (even though I'm not Irish!). My beloved nana died and had requested no wake, etc. so there was no closure for me . I decided some kind of "goodbye" is helpful for the people left behind

 

[EROS]

My ashes are to be spread over FENWAY PARK .......

 

[Chattyaholic]

My DH and I bought our cemetery plot several years ago ($100 for a 5-grave plot, includes eternal care) so we'll be buried in the traditional way, but I DON'T want traditional funerals!!! My DH doesn't care what type of funeral he has, so if he goes first it will be a private family service. I don't want all of the "extended family" coming. He was Mennonite before we got married and NONE of his relatives (except one set of grandparents, and one aunt and uncle...out of many!) came to our wedding. So, they don't need to come to his funeral either (although they would, I'm sure!) so it will just be our immediate family....no 3-day long "visitation" stuff....ugh!! For me either, if I go first....I don't want all that crap. Just put me in the casket, have a short family service and be done with it!!! Oh, but first we will donate whatever organs we can....I think it's terrible when people don't do that when they have the opportunity.

 

[honeywolf7]

I want what MsKanga said except that I want to be scattered over the Rockies.

 

[antnee]

Actually the third choice was partly right for me. I said to my family before marriage to please have me stuffed and placed in the attaic and bring me out for Macaroni on Sundays. But after marriage I used to say to my wife
"Just throw me in the Garbage"

 

[MerryPoppins]

I want to be cremated, but I also want a funeral service.

 

[AMClvsMKY]

My Dh and I both want to be creamated when then time comes. My In-Laws have already paid for their creamations. Not sure where I want to be spread tho - somewhere in Disney or maybe in the ocean.

Both DH and I are also donating any parts of our bodies that can be used by others. Why not - We won't have any need for it any longer, maybe we can help someone else.

 

[Steve H.]

I guess I'm a traditionalist -- give me a wake, a funeral and a burial.

 

[SuiteDisney]

I want to be buried, but not traditionally. I don't like the idea of the coffin sitting in a cement vault. I'd like the chance to become fertilizer. I don't mean that as a joke, I just don't want my body to sit in a cement case, taking up room and not doing any good for anything. I want to be "ashes to ashes, dust to dust" and become a part of the earth.

 

[Indyman]

I don't really care, I'll be dead.

 

[Deb in IA]

I don't like the thought of decaying, so I want to be cremated.

DH, however, does not want to make an ASH out of himself . . .

 

[Poohbear123]

I want to be cremated also. I want my ashes brought to WDW, and spread thru out the park, and if BOTH my kids are there, I want them to spend 3 days there and ENJOY the rides while Spreading my ashes.............I don't ask for much. I will have the Money left to them to do this, and If they do NOT do this, I will come back and Haunt them for the rest of thier LIVES!
