When I die I want Marilyn to call a neighbor with a backhoe and have him dig a hole on this one favorite spot on the farm, and throw my body in. She said NO to that and I can't defend myself after I go.
My dad, who is 85 and doing well, is about as conservative as anyone can be, so he has his funeral expenses figured out down to the penney. He has put emotions aside and is thinking of his departure purely as a business deal. He will control his money to the grave. He will be cremated, the memorial service will be in his church, one block away from his house and after the funeral his friends will come to his house for coffee. I will dig the hole for his ashes beside my mom's grave in the cemetery at a time of my convenience.
My dad's arrangement works because he is old, a lot of his friends are gone, and most of the emotion involved with dying won't be there. We had a completely different scenario when our daughter, the mother of three little girls, suddenly passed. Emotions were high we were weakened and the funeral home took full advantage of it. They get you when you're down.Jim
