I plan on being cremated, have them take me down to one of the fifty story buildings I put plumbing in. Flush me down for a last big ride.

Actually take me to deer lease in Coleman county, scatter me out. Wifey wants to be scattered out in Surfside on the beach

What about you fellas? If I was a farmer or rancher, I’d want to be scattered out there.

Cremated. Spread on top of the mountain at my cabin. Written into my will.
The thought of rotting in a box is unsettling to me. Plus, why take up valuable real estate with my sorry carcass.

Cremated for sure. That’s the cheapest way to go about it. Funerals and burials, to me, are a huge financial ripoff. I don’t want my kids to be burdened with any financial expenses to dispose of my body that aren’t absolutely necessary.

Wife and I are going to be cremated. She wanted to be buried next to her parents and that was the only way to make it work. I personally don’t care one way or the other.

Neither,

I've requested my remains to be deposited at a spot I call "hog heaven", and let the hogs recycle me. Lord knows how many I have recycled. It will be cheap and good Karma!

ya!

Most likely you’re gonna be pumped full of embalming fluid if you’re buried, at which point you’ll be toxic waste inside a by-law sealed casket.

Old German joke... “Why are your grandpa’s ashes in an hourglass?”

Answer.... “even tho he’s dead, grandpa must work!”

For me take out anything useful/reusable, burn the rest, do what you want with the ashes, they were only on loan anyhow.

Cremated.

Ashes on a tub of tannerite.

Pards boys or my cousin light me up.

No services either. That stuff is a waste of time and $$ in my opinion.

Drove through the cemetery where my grandparents and all of the greats are buried 2 nights ago. Made a comment to my wife that there was a good waste of real estate right there.

Already paid for....Crypt. But have no objections to Cremation if that's what a person wants. I personally believe a Person's Cremains are more worthy of honor/respect than a big turd to be flushed...but that's just me! ha

Cremated...ashes will probably be spread on the big river back home (in defiance of the EPA and the NYSDEC.) I have, however, considered this: https://beyondburials.com/

Cremated and tossed here on the property in north Idaho. The Trust is very clear on this.

Cremated. The older I get, the worse my claustrophobia becomes. The thought of slowly rotting underground in an oversized shoebox suffocates me.

Cremated. I'll be dead so it doesn't really matter. I don't want a service but the wife will probably do something. I told her to go down the local pub and open a tab.
