My inlaws were cremated and when my M-i-L died it was decided to have a joint memorial last August in Connecticut. One of the ideas kicked around was to load their ashes into a 5 inch mortar and shoot them off over Long Island Sound. I was all for the idea but one of the grandkids thought it was 'creepy' so they just poured them into the sound.

The fireworks would have been way better.

I've made the provision on my donor register be an organ donor first, and to donate my body to science if the remaining organs are not suitable for transplant for whatever reason. Whatever is left can be disposed of any way they want. I also made sure my parents and sister know this, so there is no legal issue about it after I'm dead.
Best regards,

It matters to the people who could be living off your organs and the people who could be saved by a doctor with some decent practice Tongue

Organ donor with cremation, nothing fancy, and no keeping the ashes
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Buried with variation.

Bury me upside down with my ass sticking out so if an old friend comes to see me, he will have a place to park his motorcycle.

Oh and FUCK organ donation. Whoever gets it is going to have to pay for it one way or another and if I ain't getting a cut of that action, fuck 'em, I'll take them to my grave with me.

Really. You want me to donate the organ(s) for free yet some doctor is gonna make a boatload of money off of it not to mention the labs, hospitals and whomever else gets involved. I got the organ(s), I want a piece of that pie.

Why the fuk is it illegal to sell a kidney anyway?

I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.
