Cremation FTW
I don't want to be cremated. I have an irrational fear of burning.
Just put me in a hole in a pasture and let the worms eat me. I'll become part of natures soil, which will nourish a plant, which will nourish a cow, which will nourish a human and become the protein building blocks in the DNA of his sperm then ill be reincarnated!

my granddad was cremated, my dad donated hes body to a med school, I told my wife to just have me stuffed and put me in the front hall with my hand out and a smile on my face. You don't have to have a coffin.

Wal Mart sells coffins.

For a burial even the pine box is a couple thousand, ridiculous

want to see just how much of a massive racket? look at the legislative fight the LA funeral home lobby has put up against those beautiful monks coffins that sell for pennies on the dollar compared to what a funeral home wants.

I don't get it either.
I do want a headstone, because I think they're cool. As far as the box, just tie my hands and feet together (in case of zombies) and throw me in the dirt.

That's actually a cool idea
Posted on 9/12/17 at 11:19 am to deltaland
Because it's big business and the funeral industry preys on emotions. They'll all go to hell.

Pine boxes will make a comeback, for sure.

Scruffy wants that. He'll come back as an Ent like from Lord of the Rings.
Scruffy will then smite all of his enemies with his leafy justice.

I think I'm going to donate my body to science, piss off funeral homes

Chop me up and give away the very few of my organs that are worth a frick to someone in need

I'd be cool with being cremated and I've let my wife know it. Either that or my brother in law had a back hoe, dig a hole and drop me in. Make sure you cover me up good.

I hope to make my own casket, in my early 70s, and then not need it for 30 years, so I feel kind of foolish for building it in my 70s, and get a good joke out of it with my great grandkids and 95 year old wife.

Not sure but the last three people I know who died, the family skipped the funeral and just had a gathering at the graveside.

Thinking over this gave me an idea.
Why not make your own coffin? Make it a fun woodworking project. You can take your time (hopefully) and really do it up right. Do some wood burning, engraving, a nice stain. That way your family's feelings of guilt of putting you in a cheap pine box are assuaged, and you have the sentimental side of it covered too.
Seems like a win win.

Take a look at the cost of a funeral with a black owned company vs a company like Rabenhurst. It's about a third of the cost for the same service
