Me: We’ll Grant Mom’s Last Wish

Me: Both of (my parents) are gone now and I'm not 50 yet. sigh… Many of you know my Mom went in October. My Mom wanted to be cremated and put in the ocean if possible. In May, my Sister, Husband and Son and I will travel to Lincoln City and go out on a boat to do just that. I'm very happy that we'll be able to do just what she wanted.

Question: Do you want to be cremated when you check out? If so, what do you want your loved ones to do with your ashes?
