As compost in my garden would be nice.
Do you know that human ash does not decompose?

My parents were killed when I was 9. The family argued who was going to take the kid. My dad’s brothers wanted to dump me in an orphanage. My Gramps said ‘Hell no. We will take him.” My grandparents raised me. My niece is really my cousin. I don’t have any nieces.
We have been very close for years. She has always been my rock.
It’s a long story I don’t care repeating.

No but my old wish was to be backpacked up in pieces of wolves or some other hungry critter. But I know we are way too toxic to do any creature any good. Probably will be incinerated though. Don't want to be a big problem.

I choose cremation. 
I don't want my son spending extra money holding a wake/funeral for my empty body. I talk about me leaving with him now. It's like saying goodbye in advance. We often say I love you to each other. When I do die, he won't feel in a desperation to say goodbye or to cling to my decaying body. He's fully aware of my faith and where I know my spirit will be. I want him to use a minimum of funds to dispose of my remains. Whatever funds are left, I want him to use on himself.
