Some ashes are under a headstone in Ohio. I still have some to be mixed with mine….then mine will be buried there, too.
I know this is way too much for some people, but it’s what gave me comfort.
The point of the story….cremation gives you options. Cremains can be divided and given away or disposed of all at once.
Our local columbariums hold two urns per niche. Very inexpensive, but you do have a final memorial.
It’s a matter of deciding what is important to you.
