Dust to dust - ashes to ashes.

The trend is cremation - no gravestones - just urns.

Very few of the humans who have inhabited this earth were buried in graves - with head stones or plinths.

Wild stuff.

Excellent point.

How will Mormon geneaologists search them out?

And here Mormons talk about the supposed "fairness" system of theirs.

How "fair" will it be for the tombstoneless of the centuries?

I recently told a friend I wanted to be cremated and my ashes compressed into golf balls so my loved ones could take one last whack at me and send my remains into the ocean as fish food.

Then a friend suggested I consider Eternal Reefs and I wuz like “Hell Yeah!”
