Have you ever considered how you would like to be remembered...

I've thought about my funeral/memorial service. Not in a morbid SI way. Just in a fun way. That sounds weird. But I'd like it to be meaningful and personal and quirky
Thanks for this!

I just want my ashes buried with a plant that is special so every day I can still live through the plant and be with the one I love. I don't want to be buried or even a showing. I want their last memory of me when I was alive.

I know I want to be cremated and my ashes buried in a couple different places that bring my soul peace....one of them at Venice Beach , Florida, where I used to visit frequently as a kid. I'm not sure what I want my eulogy to say, though... probably something really smart *** & read about 30 minutes later than it would usually be read.... because I'm almost always running late for everything

I want a traditional funeral Mass but there also needs to be an after-party where everyone eats hot fudge sundaes and reminisces about me. I want to be remembered with smiles and laughter!

Music, alcohol, and lots of food. Just think about your memories of me and enjoy life.

I expect to travel the universe when I die, so I just want a small service were someone points at the stars and says "He's out there now, right where he wanted to be."
Then everyone raises their glasses, toasts the stars and proceeds to have silly party all night long until the stars fade.

I want a kick *** party and not a funeral. Music, dancing, food, alcohol. I hate funerals. Just pop me in the ground and party.

I can't imagine anyone ever wanting to come to remember me. Who would? Why? Just bury my ashes with my parents and say a prayer.

I told a friend of mine (jokingly) that I wanted my casket carried by midget pallbearers, with the song "Lowrider" playing in the background.

Seriously, I don't know though. Nothing that's a big deal, that's for sure.

I will be dead so I guess who ever is left can do whatever they want. I think a service or memorial would be a total waste of time and certainly money. Caskets and even cremation is a waste of money IMHO.

I haven't thought about it too much. I just want to be cremated. I have this fear of suffocating or drowning, and I know I'll be dead anyway and this is silly, but I don't want my body buried in a coffin. The thought makes me squirmy.
