On a recent posting someone pointed out something I did not see in the picture.
It was a urn in a trailer I was demolishing
Though about it,,,, naa can’t be.
Forgot about it….

Flash Forward Now today…..

It is…..



Is it weird to name it while it is in my care?

Put them in the flower bed for now.

Was she hot ? .....put some on your cheerios

My luck it would be a dude…

I would say it’s fair game. When the urn containing ashes becomes dust covered or left behind, there aren’t directions in the book of life, for that.

there is probably a metal tag in the urn

that should be able to identify who it is , if it is from your state.

Like stated, should be a metal tag with a number that can be traced to ID remains

Contact family and see if they want them. You never know if some of the surviving family members might just not know that their loved ones remains are floating around.

Otherwise be respectful in your decision on where to leave them.
I think the garden as a temporary place of rest fits that

Nah, I'd name it and take it around like Swearington did with his Indian head in the box, on Deadwood..

Drop Bob off at a cemetery, or release him in a nice spot...make sure there's no occult symbols on the urn...Bob might need to stay in there for everyones safety...

I wouldn't have recognized it for what it is. All my family has been put in a box and planted.

I like the garden spot

Snort it.Dave.

Sadly that is what has become what many think of their loved ones. Sad state of affairs all the way around.

I have a brother in law who's father had died, he was cremated and stored in a neighbors garage as the bil didn't live near the father anymore, he never offered to pick him up or even have him mailed to him...then the neighbor died. I don't think he ever picked the old man up, but all the while commenting how his parents were great and how much he admired them.. Geeze, do the right thing ...never liked the BIL, but I have no use for him at all anymore...

we take up a lot less space , when reduced to base elements

also a lot less cost

what good is making yourself a cement vault that exists for a 1000 years.

We have a 9 seater family plot....then they changed the rules, allowing I think, 3-1 cremations per burial....When my brother died, he was cremated and put in a cardboard box, We went with my ex SIL for his "burial"

Guy comes out with a post hole digger, dug a short hole and in he went....done....
They did have a small family service some time later....

Bury it!

So far so good.….
No poltergeist last night
Thanks for the information on the tag.

It seems odd it is not already buried.
This might not have been the persons last wish,,,, or maybe “they” did not want have one.
The trailer that I found it in was used by the last owner for storage.
He died. A clean out company was hired to remediate the property. I was hired to remove and store the vehicles.
The clean out company did not disclose the urn. I never looked in the trailer.

just watch the wind man

The best plans of Man…..

Contact a local church to possibly give a proper burial or farewell.

Sarge

Get a post hole auger. Go down a few feet. Plant the urn. Cover it up. Wipe your hands and forget about it.

The person who's ashes they are probably didn't want to be buried, hence the cremation.

Ther is nothing wrong with geting burnt. Infact I wish it we tree legal for the family to shove me in the oit door wood burner and just dump the ashes in the garden with the rest of them. It has burnt up plenty of critters just fine. Would do the same with me. Save the $ and spend it on something useful not a rock service and such. I thin my son was around 20k in 07. I dont remember if that included the custom ordered stone or if that was around 9 k in addition to?

For me I would rather the kids and future grand kids use that cash for themselves.

That said ther is a benefit to those left behind to have a place to go and visit for a while after the loss that a rock and hole in the ground provides. At least i spent some time standing in the field talking to stones after my son and grandfather died. But gradually that dropped of to nothing. Have not been to the cemetery in a few years now.

I once had the same problem. She had a passion for butterfly's, so I started a butterfly garden and sprinkled her ashes around it.

Whoever that was does not give a crap what you do with it at this point.
