My husband and I were talking the other day about what we wanted to happen to us when we died and that got me thinking. I told my husband to donate any usable part of me and then I want to be cremated. I'd like the ashes buried,though, so that my kids have somewhere to go to feel close to me.
So do you visit the graves of your loved ones that you've lost?
How often?
If you don't why not?

hi madasp! As a child we visited our family graveyard at least once a month. My granfather was very picky as to how the place was kept. I have moved around alot and don't vivit near as much but I do try to make the occassional trip. It is about a three hour drive from where I live at now so it makes it tough to go regularly.

I have not visited the cemetary in a long time. And I really should go see my mom and dad there. But sometimes we just don't have the time, and I talk to them in my own way, as for my husband. He was cremated so he is here with me. I also want to be cremated, and I want each of my grandkids and my two kids to have some of my ashes. That way I will always be there for them to talk to when they need to.
