CoachK's wishes are to have her ashes used to fill golf divots at a course of her choice.. . . 18 holes course. .

there is plant a tree over the ashes. .

There are many ways to dispose of ashes after cremation. . . and they don't have to involve money. .
Reminds me of the broken blue and white urn I used to see regularly on my Pompano Beach shore dives. I was thinking more of skipping the fire part. Waste of protein. Lots of cute scavengers out there.
