Where do we go when we die and are you afraid?

I have made my wishes clearly known:-

The doctors should be given the opportunity to use any part of my body for transplants, research etc.

The cheapest coffin/body bag available (no point wasting good beer money feeding the worms or the flames)

At the funeral there should be no priests, vicars, ministers, shamans, witch doctors or other peddlers of superstitious nonsense.  

It should also be made clear that I am DEAD.
I am not sleeping.
I have not passed.
I am not resting.
So please, no wimpy euphemisms, face the reality of death.

Now go and have a drink, think nice things and enjoy your life as much as I have enjoyed mine.

I have a living will and am an organ donor. I’m to be cremated, the disposition of my ashes left up to my wife (if she predeceases me, to my sister in the US). 

No funeral, no memorial service of any kind.
