I am not Catholic but my wife is. I’ve told her that I want to be cremated once all my organs are donated. Then her and our children are to take my ashes to the Virgin Islands and throw me in.
Instead of a “funeral” I’ve asked that they have a gathering to celebrate my life and tell stories about me and how I affected and influenced their lives.
Ashes must be buried.

I lost a close friend last year and this was his wish also. Lots of tears and laughter. I now have plans to do the same.
