That's Really, Really COLD.

What if this happened to someone YOU Loved Very Much?

My family is all skinny.

When my Dad died, we had him cremated. He was the original rebel. We got his ashes in a little square box. After the service Mom and I carried him out to the graveyard, and there was a round hole. It was so perfect we both cracked up laughing in front of all the mourners.

Oh come on. Life is too short to wallow in despair. Death happens whether you like it or not. You are also going to die.

Personally, I want people celebrating the end of my life, my will stipulates I buy the beer!

The best memory I have of burying on of my grandmothers is the fact we cremated her. On the way to the gravesite I took the box with the ashes. A friend of the family was in the back seat and asked, "I don't see a hearse, where's the body?" I picked up the box and handed it to him and said, "right here". He freaked! We all laughed.

My grandmother would have loved it. She was such a jokester.
