Cremation or Burial ?????

[dbenjamin]

Which do you prefer cremation or cemetery burial ?? As for myself I choose cremation (ashes to ashes), besides its less expensive for my family.I prefer that my life insurance be used for my family to keep going even after my death . I can't do anything with ....God will and has provided for me . Being real .loving every minute of it .

I want to be cremated it's cheaper and I can't see just sticking thousands of dollars into the ground like that.  Either that or I will donate my body to medical science.

I have always wanted to be cremated mainly because of the cost of a funeral.  My husband had been against it but he is now coming around to liking the idea.  I wanted to buy little crystal heart holders for the ashes to be given away in.  Everyone else thinks that is a little morbid, though.

I'm leaning toward cremation because it's a lot cheaper than a burial.

That sounds like a beautiful idea .....

Sorry, have to disagree with everyone so far.  My father was killed in a fire, burned so bad you could not recognize him, my mother had to identify his body by his belt buckle and they also used dental records.  For that reason I have a very unnatural fear of fire.  I have a fireplace in my family room which I will never allow to be lit.  For that reason I have to choose to be buried.

I know my loved ones would like to see me for the last time in the event of my passing, so I would prefer to be buried.  I remember a lady I knew had cancer and passed.  She decided on cremation before she died, but they had a funeral so her loved ones could see her for the last time.  Her great-granddaughter was pregnant, and her baby is the spitting image of her.

Definitely cremation.  It's cheaper, not to mention the fact that your loved one can move any where you do.  I'm so sorry I never had my daughter cremated.  She's buried in a state I no longer live in and I never get the chance to visit her grave anymore.  It really bothers me!

I want to be cremated,  and my ashes to be scattered or in a small urn either way at the site of my children with a small plaque with my name and simply worded united again.
We should never have to lose our children before we pass ;but when the good lord calls them home. it hurts but they are in a better plce. I miss them everyday.

Cremation.  I have no desire to be preserved for all eternity.

Thank you Dbenjamin.  I was a child when it happened, but I can still remember that night.
