| Eligible for a custom title | Have you decided what has to be done with your body? Is it something you've been giving any thought, or doesn't it matter anything at all to you. I had a conversation with my wife about it last night, and it just made me wonder, if people think about at all. |

| Eligible for a custom title | But what's to happen after that. Do you want a tombstone, or just for someone to scatter your ashes somewhere that means something to you. I think that's my approach. To send my loved ones out on a journey, that meant a the world to me. Just to let them know a little more about me, than what they've seen. I'd rather have them remembering me for what i were, than having them facing a tombstone with my name on it. That's not me. |

| I've told my family not to waste any money on tombs or graves. Just do what they want with the ashes, even if they have them thrown away thats fine with me. We have pictures, videos and other stuff for memories. If they need some sort of closure then they have my permission to do whatever it takes. |

| I haven't given it the slightest thought - couldn't really care less. I'll be dead, so it won't make any difference to me - if people want to remember me, they will do so. |

| I too never gave it much thought, I do have an active policy to relieve my family of any financial heartaches come what may. I guess for me its more about where am I going afterwards. Heck, just toss me in a box, I want my family to make good use of the policy. Its all going to burn anyway. Sherri Last edited by delilahjed44 : 10-14-2008 at 12:51 AM. |

| I just went to a Jewish funeral on Sunday. A friend's dad had died. He was 101. Last edited by Daquan13 : 10-14-2008 at 07:25 PM. |
