Funny this topic would come up. My sister and I recently laughed about our mother's wishes (she is ill and lately all we talk about is Living Will, Power of Attorney, Hospice, etc). My mother would like her cremated ashes to be put on a bookshelf and displayed for, say, 6 months at a time, at each of our homes (six kids). This is after we have a "celebration" of dancing, great music from broadway shows, all in her honor. My sister has nightmares about the placement of the ashes. We laugh about it alot but it is such a dang serious thing to ponder.

Me, I'm with you Red; cremate and party, celebrate and dance. Then spread my ashes over the river (my favorite place). I would not require my kids share possession of my ashes, yuck. Great topic.
