Well, amacneill, I guess it's a waste of time to ask you if you like cheese?
Excellent work, Zacs Mom.

Pinellas Park, FL (LifeNews.com) -- Michael Schiavo plans to keep the location of where he will bury Terri Schiavo's ashes a secret and will prevent Terri's family from knowing. His brother told the media on Thursday that Terri's family would show up and cause a spectacle if they found out.
"If Mike knew they would come in peace, he would have no problem with it," Scott Schiavo, Michael Schiavo's brother, told AP.
A complete autopsy will be performed on Terri's body by the local county medical examiner's office. Once that is completed, Michael plans to have Terri's body cremated and her ashes buried in Pennsylvania.
Scott told the Associated Press the ashes will be buried in a burial plot left to Michael by an aunt and uncle.
"We've already said goodbye," Bobby Schindler said when asked about not knowing where his sister would be buried.
Concerning Michael's latest decision snubbing his family, Bobby said, "He's been doing this kind of stuff for 15 years. What would make him stop now?"
Terri's parents fought for years to stop the cremate, citing Terri's Catholic religious beliefs, and asked Judge George Greer to allow Terri to be buried in Florida, closer to her family. Greer declined both requests.
Terri's parents and her family did not discuss the burial issue during their remarks to the media following Terri's death. However, Paul O'Donnell, a Franciscan monk who has been helping the family during the last two weeks, said they would hold a Catholic mass for Terri even though they will not have her body present.
The mass will take place sometime next week.
A spokesman for the Pinellas County medical examiner's office said Terri's body would be given to Michael on Friday for the cremation process to begin.
The autopsy on Terri's body may yield a preliminary look in two to three days but the office will not have final results for two to three weeks.
Accurate and well-stated.
I hadn't heard that, and don't know if it's true.
But I do know it's been documented on FR that there have been some unholy alliances between Felos, the "Hospice," Greer, and a Pinellas County sheriff.

There-I fixed it for you.
Yes, I've seen threads about that (and about the elusive Scientology connection).

Just another way to hurt the family eh?
There are plenty of us with 'something resembling a mind', unfortunatly you do not appear to fall into that category when you pronounce sainthood upon Michael Schiavo. So why don't you crawl back to DU and stay under your rock where you belong.
Has Michael yet announced how many millions he'll get for his book deal?
I have seen some nasty acrimony in families where the inlaws hated the surviving husband/wife. There were fights over creamation vs burial. But never was there a secret location. (unless spreading the ashes as sea is a secret.)
I think this is more the Culture of Death not wanting a shrine or an ongoing focal point.
The "hospice" should be razed and converted to a park with Terri's shrine.
I understand that it isn't traditional for RC's, and I understand that this situation is not normal. But the law is clear... The right and responsibility for burial of remains is with the husband, and not any other "family". It's a shame that there is so much hatred that they can't get along, but I hardly think anyone should be surprised that they don't agree now on what to do.
Only know this, that cremation itself is ~not~ prima facie evidence of guilt. It is a very normal option for many Christian people, and your post "No NORMAL man treats his wife's body this way if she dies of natural causes." suggested we were also trying to hide something when we had my mother's remains cremated. I also intend that my remains will also be cremated and either scattered or interred, as that option seems far more dignified to me than embalming me and dressing my body up in a gown.
Faithfulness.
Micahel makes it very difficult to try and have Christian thoughts when he continues to be such a major A--Hole! After listening to the Schindlers yesterday and how dignified they were and then his loudmouth Michael and his obnoxious brother behave like animals I do truly believe she suffered at the hands of Michael. I am amazed his livein has children with him and stays with him. What a rotten role model he is for his kids.

The only person who has triggered a spectacle in this whole thing is Michael Schiavo, who has insisted all along that Terri wanted to torture her mother and father. Of course he had a lot of help from the "boobs in black."

"Joe Ford, a Harvard undergraduate with severe cerebral palsy: "Like many others with disabilities, I believe that the American public, to one degree or another, holds that disabled people are better off dead. To put it in a simpler way, many Americans are bigots. A close examination of the facts of the Schiavo case reveals not a case of difficult decisions but a basic test of this country's decency."
are you kidding? Hollyweird will turn his story into a 15year love story of death. They will wait for a year before begining the preliminary shooting so the public has time to forget...
He'd have to PAY to have them buried, and he wouldn't want to eat into his insurance money. He'll dump her in the river...in true murderer form.
