Not weirded out by cremation at all. We had my father cremated when he died (at his request). We then spread his ashes at his old deer blind, three of his favorite fishing spots, his favorite mushroom spot and my sister had some ashes buried near his mother and fathers grave. She tends to visit grave sites to mourn, and needed that. It didn't matter that his body wasn't there, as a grave site is a grave site. Me, I remember him while hunting and fishing. I believe that the thing that matters is the remembrances of surviving family and friends, not the presence of remains. The remains should be treated with dignity, but they are not the person. When I go, it's up to my family to dispose of me how they see fit, but I'd prefer cremation if it's still done then.
