Re: Reg funeral, or Cremation

how often do you go and visit graves?

btw in the states, the crematorium have places where u can put the urn and visit it if you like - similar to crypts for bodies or even in the ground.

Rich, i mean a reg funeral not a wake, a funeral where the hearse carries the casket to the grave, and they sing and console each other, the final farewell, i believe my family would need this,

cremation is good for animals, not humans (IMHO)

Ceebee, u silly,

Re: Reg funeral, or Cremation

often,
my Dads is on the family plot
and so are my in laws
my BIL - we visit at the cemetary quite often (we bring champagne, balloons and such)
its a special time, when you reflect to go to the cemetary to visit a loved one that has passed on, we do it quite often,

Re: Reg funeral, or Cremation

This post is so timely..

Yesterday we (all my friends) were remembering a dear friend who we lost to a motorcycle accident 8 years ago. He died on a leap year (Sunday, Feb 29th) and every leap year we gather in his memory.

Not to be graphic and all but his death was horrible ...bike exploded so yuh can imagine the carnage. <span style="font-style: italic"> **tears for Carry**</span> Anyway .. because of the body's condition, the family contemplated cremation of the remains.
they opted for a funeral ..closed casket.

Well the grave site does give us a place to visit in his memory so I guess I can see your argument against cremation. Mi noh have an opinion one over the other. Just dat mi waan inna mi bess jewelry and wan nice pike heel boot

I digress...it was an emotional days yesterday for us all.... Lawd
