But, as for me. I never want to go in the ground or in a mausoleum as my mom has in place. Graves/cemeteries, etc give me the creeps. Hardly anyone goes to visit, so they are lonely places. As I’ve grown older, I feel cremation is a much more dignified way to deal with the remains, imo.

There’s another alternative. A woman in Sweden invented a process for freeze-drying a corpse in liquid nitrogen. After the freezing, the body is placed in a shaker machine and disintegrated into a thousand pieces. The pieces are placed in another machine which extracts all liquid leaving only a dried, oatmeal-like substance. This substance is placed in a biodegradable container which next-of-kin can then use as a sort of fertilizer for the planting of a memorial bush or tree. Nice alternative for those who don’t like the thought of being burned, or rotting in the ground, or being devoured by insects.
Interesting indeed. Sounds expensive.
