I just hope I have loved ones to remember me. I don't care what they do with my body.
-
I will be taken care of by the department I am sure.
-
The funeral is for the living. I won't care what they do, I'll be dead. But I want to be cremated perhaps after being discected by some medical students, and my ashs spread in my garden. I always like a good joke and the med students can joke over my body. I want as little spent as possible.
-
spend only what's necessary, bury my body and don't cremate me. and i don't want a deluxe casket either - if it's not coming with me to the afterlife, then it's not worth spending mega bucks for either (and itchy your latest questions are raising my concern, so i really hope that you're okay)
-
I do not want a big to-do over my funeral arrangements. I would prefer to be cremated, but not before my organs have been donated to science. I would like my ashes to be released on a mountain, any mountain.
-
Whatever they need to feel okay with it. If they want me buried fine. If they want to keep expenses down, that's great. I wish to be treated with dignity and I know they will do that. So whatever their hearts want.

I want my organs donated (I won't be needing them), and then I want to be cremated (cheaper and conserves space). Just dump my ashes on a tree or something; don't carry me in an urn (that's just creepy to me). After bills and final expenses, I would like a memorial scholarship to be given to a high school senior each year. And YES, it matters to me.

Stuff me in a box or put my ashes in a peanut can (preferrably an old one)... Please try to give an organ to someone who needs it first (forget the liver, that's mine, and I plan on having it pretty wore out by then.) After that, I want all of my friends and family to have a shindig that ends up being broken up by the Sheriff's department. I want my life to be celebrated, pretty much in the same way I lived it. I don't want to be mourned.

I wouldn't mind being thrown into the sea, whole body, for all the creatures to eat. In that way, I provide my body for food and contribute to the natural food chain. :)
-
I dont mind. They could make a really nice wall hanging....

Keep it simple, but remember the good times- share memories, funny stories, things that touched them, but most of all, celebrate a life well-lived. And yes, I think a person's life really matters and he should be remembered in some respectful way by family, friends and relatives.

i want to go to science

It does to those who are still living, and that's all that matters.
