I would like to creamated and spread as the planting soil for a new tree or a new plant or something. I know it sounds like a hippie move, but I think it would be cool. Giving back to the soil...literally.

I want to be creamated as well, and have my ashes spread over Queen's View In Bermuda

I would like to be cremated, I think. I would like for people to remember me the way I was at the happiest and healthiest time of my life and cherish those memories rather than seeing me laying in a box and being put under the ground.

I wanna be cremated. I don't want to be slowly decomposing and slowly eaten by worms, and that's serious. I'll go for cremation. (",)

I want to be cremated. I have heard it is cheaper (do not need a casket and such) Also I can be stored anywhere my loved ones would like me to be. Up on the mantel, in a purse, in a drum set...anywhere.

Where do I want to go, well, I'd say my only hope is for heaven. I would like for my body to be interred. I am opposed to cremation and would like for the place that once housed the Holy Ghost - to receive due respect.

I've decided I'd rather be cremated than be put in the ground.It's alot cheaper too.

I have already made my will and I have left instructions for the executer that I want to be cremated. I think it is much cheaper and I don't want people going to a lot of expense after I have passed away. I hate the thoughts of being buried in a hole in the ground.

I can't think of an example of royalty being cremated historically. Even the ancient egyptians found the idea contrary.

Well, I want to go to Heaven. :) As for what's done with my body...the very thought of cremation creeps me out a little, so I'd prefer a traditional burial.

I think I'd like to be cremated if only for the fact I think it would be fun to have my ashes tossed around somewhere. I don't know if I'd like knowing i was rotting away in a coffin

I want to be buried when i die because i believe the Bible when it says we will all be resurrected and i think when you will be buried, you'll be in whole piece when you live again.

I would like to donate parts of my body to science, the other half either buried or my ashes tossed into the lakefront which me and my wife used to go a visit all the time.
