My mother was, her wish.

(14,950 posts)the family agreed to scatter both of their ashes at the same place. We thought it appropriate that they be together, in a place they spent a lot of happy time together. We never found it weird or creepy that we didn't inter or scatter her ashes right away. Other people might have, but so what?

I took my time planning her service.
No big rush.

(20,868 posts)After having a dead body laying there with not a clue as to what to do, I pre-arranged for two at that time for $1600. They were having a "sale" believe it or not.
I did not want to stick that one with any one, regardless of who they may be!
Sea scatter paid for as well.
