Maybe I'll have to get on the BOD to tell them I want a tree planted on me.<BR/><BR/>I'm with you, Travis.<BR/><BR/>Kristina, I've googled it, and there's lots of hits to support that the bones are ground, and that ashes do contain bone chips, bridge work (though I haven't any) and other non-ashy stuff.Junosmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13855881312654998692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9494834.post-34793767746100905062009-02-06T10:25:00.000-05:002009-02-06T10:25:00.000-05:00Oh, I love his sense of humor.

Gary has always wanted to be cremated, but recently changed his mind and decided he wants to be buried in Arlington. That's interesting about the bones. I just hate the cold so much that I don't want to be buried in the cold ground.Kristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04589107941801563478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9494834.post-26864834643755343002009-02-06T09:39:00.000-05:002009-02-06T09:39:00.000-05:00I'm with you.

I'd rather end up in a ditch with coyotes snacking on my bones than to be cremated.Travis Erwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09420879160702098979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9494834.post-62028242482821007762009-02-06T08:54:00.000-05:002009-02-06T08:54:00.000-05:00Well J/M, unless you're buried in a private family...Well J/M, unless you're buried in a private family cemetery somewhere, it's doubtful that the town-cemetery will allow a tree to be planted on your grave, so you won't be fertilizing much.<BR/>Yes, it's true, the bones are ground down to a chunky-powder after they come out of the "oven". <BR/>Instead of sitting on a shelf waiting for the cat to make use of you, you could always have your ashes buried in the cemetery, or else spread, either in a cemetery scattering garden, or have your surviving loved ones take you on a trip and spread your ashes at some favorite place, perhaps along a favorite horse-trail.pita-womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18180341525376306799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9494834.post-28977773690150566212009-02-06T08:27:00.000-05:002009-02-06T08:27:00.000-05:00I don't care what happens to me after I die. It's ...I don't care what happens to me after I die. It's just a body.<BR/><BR/>In some places in Mexico, they make and drink a special hot chocolate that has ashes of their dead loved one in it. I remember this from a college report I did on the Day Of The Dead, but that's about all I remember.Kristen Painterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07984459504977637298noreply@blogger.com
