That grand, romantic plan lasted until I told my youngest daughter about it. Oh, my, the facial expression. I had to back pedal FAST and say "then again, dear, you can do whatever you need to do, whatever you're happy with."

Years ago I told my family I wanted to be cremated and 1/2 my ashes spread in the ocean and half in the mountains. My brother announced that he would take care it - he would flush me down the toilet and eventually I'd end up in both places. Yes, my whole family has a warped sense of humor

I have a girlfriend whose husband died suddenly of a heart attack in 2000, leaving her with HIS mother and father's ashes and now she has his also. He had a Bel Aire he loved which she kept and every Father's Day and his birthday, she takes him for a ride in it
