Years ago I paid for my own cremation and that my ashes be put out to the sea. Knowing my siblings both live in different states on the west coast, I've chosen to never burden them with my passing. I'd much prefer they have memories of the sweet times we shared together. My ten acres, home, and contents will be gifted to those that can make good use of them. I much prefer to be remembered as an asset than a burden to those around me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10193698120087490787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177479069889847827.post-20340448120894890492019-11-30T08:18:19.369-05:002019-11-30T08:18:19.369-05:00Buried in the ground.

I've done some research into the cost of a traditional funeral and burial, and the cost of cremation. The difference is astounding indeed!Joy Neighborshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517577511576153582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177479069889847827.post-42409613012805880392012-03-21T14:52:31.541-04:002012-03-21T14:52:31.541-04:00Thank you White PineLane!

With today's uncomfortable trend toward preferring cremation, I am even more adamant about burial whether in ground, above ground, mausoleum or crypt. The cost of such options, however, is something few talk about.Lydiahttp://thesilverpeopleheritage.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177479069889847827.post-76313420701132713072011-08-27T10:51:39.569-04:002011-08-27T10:51:39.569-04:00I have always prefered the idea of cremation, unti...I have always prefered the idea of cremation, until recently that is, which must sound rather odd coming from someone who enjoys spending so much of their 'life time' in cemeteries.

It's made me remember a question I have about things that look exactly like the picture you have labeled "Family Mausoleum" but that don't have any family name (or any signage/plaques/plates at all on them). I'm going to do a post on my blog with the pictures of what I'm talking about. I'll come back an post the link here, and maybe you'll be able to clear up my mystery for me!WhitePineLanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11245617500723598503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177479069889847827.post-79281447614115517092011-08-27T00:11:15.814-04:002011-08-27T00:11:15.814-04:00Alright, so tell me this...
