I used to work at Roseneath in Shreveport. We would cremate then run a magnet on a stick to extract all the metal like dental work and joint replacements. Most of the gold was previously extracted. I would keep the titanium hip and elbow replacements. I made mobiles out of them and had the pledges clean them while I quizzed them on frat history. The larger bones were ground in a large coffee grinder looking deal. After everything was dust we would place the ashes in a bag like you use for beta fish at the pet store. The bag went into a laminated cardboard box until the family could obtain a modest receptacle.

I really thought you were FOS initially, then realized that gold melts above the temperature of cremation temperature.

Regardless, you sound weird AF
