I've told my husband that I want anything that can help someone else to be donated when I die (eyes, kidneys, lungs, liver, skin, etc.) What's leftover can be simply buried in a cheap pine box so the worms can eat the rest. No big fancy funeral, just a family get together with lots of good food and fond memories. ;o)

The new glorified body God has for me will have no need for the old, flesh shell and I will have eternity to rejoice in God my Savior and praise His blessed name forever.

I’m an organ donor too. It seems like a no-brainer to me, but some are freaked out by it. To each his own. The University of Washington has a willed body program, too.
One of the girls I blues dance with is a big booster of organ donation because her sister has a liver transplant. I thought that was a big deal until I met a woman in my P-patch with a heart transplant for 2 years. And p-patch work is fairly hard, physically.
People who long for the good old days overlook medical advances.

I guess “no-brainer” may have been an unfortunate figure of speech, since people have already been scolded for joking.
