    I know what you mean about being buried. It’s one of my biggest fears, being burried alive, even though I know that after being embalmed, if I wasn’t dead before, I would be after.

    I haven’t decided yet whether to be cremated or donate my body to science., but I’m leaning towards cremation.

    When my grandmother died a few years ago (which was itself a few years after we lost my grandfather), she was cremated. We then took both her ashes and my grandfather’s ashes and scattered them on the banks of the Charles River in Boston, since that’s where they met.

    Very low-key, very nice.

    And a few minutes later, two ducks came waddling up on short right next to us, one of them quacking away like crazy.

    For one brief moment, I think all of us bought into reincarnation. 🙂
