My mother died on September 23, 2012, and her sister and my sister got into a fight over the remains. Finally they agreed to divide the remains. I did it. Then they decided my aunt should keep them. My aunt told me last year she never put them back together! Please, do not fight over the remains.
Very sad
My beautiful son died 8 months ago, he was divided between 4 urns for the immune family!
For the immediate family ! That was what I meant to say
:) I read it as you meant it.
thank you
So cool
My parents are getting older, I need to think about this!
Ok..heres the dilemma Im in..sons father died a yr ago..his cremains are literally still at the funeral home...he cant bear to do anything with them...several discussions, even visiting local graveyard for info, sometime later he mentioned, but what if we ever move away...which raises the thought ok so nothing permanent..not bringing in our house is best ideal...understand traditional asian culture is to bury them...but seems best if there was something where can place, and remove if move, but place can visit if need...
Thus the poor guy still hanging out in a funeral home.. to understand that, is to understand grief and the shock of a sudden death...not everyones on same time. Glass, or other designs is out question...
My friend offered to separate if he wanted some with him, and bury the urn..
Scatter, prob not...
The funeral home has been great about this..Doubt were only ones...I cant make that decision, despite we were married a long time ago..
As far as I know our area nothing has this, though back in our home state the mausoleum has niches with glass so can see all the urns, etc..I like that thought..dont know if glass sealed permanently...
Just need to find right place.
Options here, bury, or place in a box style thing, or they have rock to place in, or sealed in mausoleum, or an underground tank for outside to pour cremains on, and everyone is permanently together
It surprised me at the weight of my sister's ashes when I picked them up as she had lost a lot of weight that proves it!
Thank you for letting us know this! This is very useful information!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Kari! Excellent as always. Do cremation operators ever discover bullets among the ashes of those who were shot, or shot themselves? I suppose they would melt, and likely all are carefully removed at autopsy, if one is done. But do bullets ever find their way into the crematorium?
I would imagine that they were removed during autopsy.
They remove them during the autopsy!
they would be removed during the autopsy
Do you know if my pet's ashes can be buried with my ashes in my burial plot
It depends on the law of that state and in that cemetery

Very interesting Kari,food for thought safe travels to you and Josh,👋👋🙏🙏👏👍🇦🇺
thanks!
How much would go inside a baseball if you took the core of the ball out? That’s what my dad wants.
She said that you would get back 4-8 cups of remains and if I google what the inside of a baseball looks like, the core is tiny.
This is a cool idea.
My dad is crazy about baseball too
They have baseball urns you can write on even. It would hold less than a cup
@@stephaniehowe0973 I am too! Baseball, cemeteries, media production and my car stereo system. Those are my weaknesses, especially if it’s made by Apple, Canon or Sony!
4 to 8 cups? My tiny mother's "ashes" filled a huge box. The three of us ran out of places to put all of it, and we were covered in her "ashes", which were not ash textured, more like oatmeal colored flour. That stuff blew around in the air. My shoes and the inside of my car were covered with it. Hand prints! 12 x 12 and 8 inches wide box.
It is not ash so you don't hear me use that. a person can yield a lot and can be more or less depending on the processor
Oh no..
Maybe keepsakes for immediate family members . But the rest of me is going to Disney. Not st the obvious places . Just on property somewhere tons of places .
I want family to say so we’re is he . Ha ha he is at the happiest place Disney
that is why Disney has strict laws against that lol
My daughter passed in '11..
Every vacation,important party,wedding ,I scatter...just a tiny amount..no one would know...I'm very stealthy 😁 it's a good way to know in my mind,that she's there..I say do it, I've never been a rule follower though
Thank you Kari. ❤
You are so welcome
Good to know!
:)
Hold a raffle
for?
We funeral directors
Transfer the remains in these small urns . Not only that but we educate the family in this situation
I’m not sure why the public need to know since we funeral directors going over this case by case
Wish we had this in Africa. A guy came to our house & handed the box with my Son 's ashes to me. Not even a phone call to say that they were coming. My husband and I have decided to be body doners. I think you are great. We had awful experiences with our late Daughter and Son.
...not everyone does
