    What are your funeral plans?

    I just can't see spending 5k or so on a coffin and another 2k for a hole in the ground. I've told my wife I want to be cremated and have told her of my wishes in how to dispose of my cremains. Of course, I'm an organ donor.
    What are your plans?

    Thumbs up Re: What are your funeral plans?

    I want cremated as well after organ donations are done...But the wife say's I'm going in the ground so she can visit me...I told her she can visit me daily if I'm in a vase on the shelf.... But she don't want to do it...I hate to waste about 10,000 bucks to bury me...Heck if we owned a farm, I'd just as well be buried out in a field under an old Hickory tree..... But I don't think the State would go for that...Sounds great to me.....

    I don't care I'll be dead. I have thought about being cremated and spread over my favorite lake.

    Cremation. With a growing population, and land becoming more limited, it just seems like burial is not a good option anymore.

    Cremation, but I also have a big rock out in my field, looks like an old step stone, told mine she could put me there as I would like to see this place get pd for. Or just build a log raft and push it out on the water and set it afire.No matter what though, put a rod and reel in my hand to take with me.

    Re: What are your funeral plans?

    Visited my Grandfather's grave just this afternoon down in Campbellsville...and it got me to thinking that cremation may be the way to go. I was sitting there at his grave...behind a little small country church surrounded by flat land and corn fields as far as I could see...came to the conclusion that (1) he aint there, just his tired old body, and (2) the grave and the coffin and the stone and all of it are more for those left behind than those in the ground. My Grandfather always said, "Just kick me over the hill behind the house and let the buzzards take care of it...don't waste your money on all that BS." LOL I heard those words today and laughed, because as usual, my Grandmother got her way and she wanted a gravestone to visit. I reckon I'll let my wife decide if I go first, but the cremation thing don't sound bad at all to me.
