I know this is a rather gloomy topic but it's one we will all have to face one day. For me I want to be buried with my family. But I'm curious to see what plans everyone else have.
What would be your reason for being buried or cremated? If you want to be cremated where do you want your ashes?

I want a green burial. There are only a few states now that have that, but hopefully by the time I die, there will be something close to home. They bury you naturally, with no embalming fluids, and they plant a tree which will have a plate engraved with your name. I've told my kids about it, so I hope they remember. But I told them, if it's too much trouble, just do the easiest thing.

Definitely cremated. I have already made sure that is in my will.

I want to be cremated. Space is limited on this planet enough, no point in taking up more room with a rotting body. Besides, once the spirit is gone the body is just an empty shell. I don't know yet what I want done with my ashes. I don't yet have any special place that I would like them to be left, but maybe my kids would want to keep them in an urn.

I want to donate my body to science, that way they can use me for the greater good!
