Is there a third choice?
Big news article in a recent newspapers said that the cost of funerals
has become so expensive that people can no longer afford to die. Well, the cost of living has also gotten to the point that people cant afford to live either. Is there a third choice? |

Depends on the size of the family and number of close friends, their religious beliefs, and presence/absence of specific instructions in the Will. Sometimes it's impossible to avoid a big show. If the coroner does not require an autopsy, one is not desired by the next of kin, organ donation is not accomplished, and the body was not traumatically mutilated, anatomic donation to a medical school is usually at zero cost to the next of kin. A very wrothwhile thing to do. I'm pretty sure you can be autopsied if the law finds reason to require it, donate those organs that are good to go, and still donate the rest of your body to a medical school. If parts are missing, they can look at the other table. I've been carrying an organ donor card all but 6 months for the last 42 years. And I'm typed and registered as a bone-marrow donor too, for the last 20 years (which doesn't require being dead, in fact the opposite), but I think I got their annual newspaper that says I'm too old to give bone marrow. (How can that be if it's still working for me?) In many states, it is legal for the mortuary to cremate the remains without a casket. Ashes can be scattered at sea or returned to the next of kin in a simple cardboard box. Funeral parlor services are not obligatory. Placement of the ashes in a columbarium or grave is not obligatory. Not entirely free, but probably the most cost effective. The mortuary I went to once, had a bunch of expensive caskets on display and hid the cheap ones. 15 years ago, 100 dollars for a pine box. I'm not sure about cardboard in this state. Didn't Sears say it was going to start selling coffins cheaply, or Walmart? |

Powers of Attorney expire when you do. (Also checking accounts and uncashed checks, etc. The checks become a claim against the estate, paid it is hoped at 100%. ) Then accounts can be closed and settled. Mom has all her arraignments pre-paid, etc. There are three folders kept stored away by family members. I suspect everything in your family is done right, and the power of attronery and medical power of attorney is for when she is still alive but not entirely with it. |

Some of our (Ex) LEO's can tell you how far too many "check on the welfare" calls turn out. Imagine the worst piece of rotten hamburger you've ever smelled. Multiply by 1000. Add in the stench of nuclear BO. I don't know why, but the stench of dead humans is readily distinguishable from the scent of dead dogs or deer. There's that general rotten meat smell - even a bottle full of dead bees smells like it - but there's something far, far worse about human decomposition. Imagine every stinky human smell you've ever smelled in your entire life rolled into one. So I think it's in deference to the living that we embalm so readily. It's probably also why some religions require very quick burials. -- Bobby G. |

You see, there is a certain protein called abagaba formed when you have a heart attack and where he was buried he was naturally provided with a rare fungus that surrounds and preserves the ababgaba, although naked to the unaided eye it stands out when being fumigated with schmenkathin and some komethathale applied with a spray mist bottle with a very small amount of high octane gasoline added to the komethathale. *Of course the gasoline can not contain any alcohol! *Simple!- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - AH!

Tony's a good man. But he forgot the two drops of Ultravein
