I was thinking a 50 cal ammo can write my name on it and put my ashes in it the kids can pass me around.

otherwise I don't really know.

paying a bunch of money for a hole in the ground some place just doesn't seem like Me

Don't matter much where they put me I guess. One thing I insist on though is that NOONE comes to my funeral with an onion in their hanky, cryin over me.

I want every one to be happy, Some to be happy I was here and some to be happy I'm gone. Don't want no 'two faced' people there. If ya loved me, Great, if ya hated me, say so and get it out of your system.


That's just how I roll, I guess. smile

I always thought it would be best to be left out on the prairie someplace. Since that aint legal it would be good if somebody would grind up my remains and make coyote bait. I don't think thats legal either so told my kids to put my ashes in the local river.

I got my cremation plan bought and paid for so the kids won't have to deal with it. My plans are not to have a wake or funeral. Anyone that matters to me will know l'm dead. Picked up a couple of what I want to use for urns for my son and daughter to have at an auction last summer. Also instructions on where I want some of my ashes spread. I'm going to sleep around quite a bit for my last nap. Here is a picture of the urns I picked. [Linked Image]

I've picked out a nice corner along the creek at my daughters house to be burned.
When I told the daughter of my wishes she ask me , why?
I told her that corner will be just a little greener for sometime to come.
And when she looks at it she will know I'm always there for her
Corny I know.

There is a certain hollow I was in one morning it was really foggy and a fallow deer came charging through the fog jumped a log and was gone. I always thought that would be the place I would like to have my ashes spread. Silly but it has always stuck with me.

Burial at sea and some on the mountain seems fitting. Half and half after a slow roast in the EZ bake oven.

I hunted Newfoundland a dozen times. It’s funny, when you’re in the back country ( I mean 10 miles off any road ), you’ll come across a stainless steel cross with engraved initials or a name. The Newfie’s like to have their ashes taken to their favorite moose look outs.

We call that cruising up here Savell. I have a neutral place picked out in a pasture. Wife’s family is hardcore Catholic and mine is hardcore Baptist crazy it will be interesting to see where I end up. Hopefully one of you guys will let me know laugh
