[QUOTE=69goatboy;4129240]When I go, my wife wants me to be cremated and then pressed into a diamond type gem and then set into a ring. Yes, they do that now.



I'll watch for you on "Pawn Stars"! Just kidding. I am also an organ donor...any needed part{s} and will most likely be parted out...and I'm cheap! Cremation is the only option in my book. Wife says she won't do it...but I believe she will. My view is that our bodies are on loan to us as long as we have a soul to occupy them. After that...they are repossesed by our Creator...so if they can get some good from it...have at it! Might be the best contribution I make! Seriously...if it helps one person...why not? I would want to be cremated regardless. When burying my Mother...the vault crashed into the coffin and they had to bury her again. Pretty traumatic experience for the family. Anyway...makes the most sense to me. Kills me [no pun intended] when folks at the funeral comment on how "good" the corpse looks! Personally...never looks as good as the last time I saw them. JMHO.
