[question everything]

1. I thought that the law demands concret and sealed coffins

Interesting comment about cremation, which is what we have been thinking.

3. I'm going the cremation route

About $700 and it's a done deal - no expensive coffin, no burial plot or headstone to buy.

4. My husband did, and rests in a niche.

Not my kind of thing; I'd rather be pushing up daisies somewhere.

5. I totally get it.
