My aunt was a social worker who worked in a VA hospital in Washington DC. She was working with a gentleman who was nearing the end and told that he needed to think about what he wanted to do with his remains. His initial response was that re really didn’t care. When she came back the next week, he said “I want to be cremated and have the ashes shipped to my brother. I never really liked him, anyway.”

We will be cremated. I doubt that any of our family will ever visit us very often, if at all. Perhaps made into a Christmas ornament so that we are remembered at a happy time of the year?
