Cremation or burial ? What is your choice ?

[OldOld]

Burial in Arlington. I have requested to be dressed in my uniform that I have marked in a bag. No notice in newspapers and no funeral, except graveside service with a Navy or Marine Chaplin performing a short service. The only outside attendee that will be permitted to attend is my niece.

You dislike all the rest of them?

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.
