I'd like to go the same way as most of the early civilizations....on a funeral pyre with a couple coins for the boatman.

As for me, I want to be wrapped in white linen, and slipped overboard, while a single piper blow’s Amazing Grace. Then everyone can have a few, and get on with fishing.

Since I won't be here I'm not really concerned with what happens to my remains, but... I have requested that a sailing buddy of mine (assuming he outlasts me) obtain a "I'd rather be sailing" bumper sticker, stick it on my coffin and replace the word "sailing" with "breathing".

I think most of us have an irreverence to our own passing and I hope each of our families act in accordance with our wishes the thing is you got to let them know in advance.
Personally I certainly don't want any embalming done on my body I consider it a desecration, I want to be on the big table at my house for the wake, with all of my friends around, the bill for the drinks at the party needs to at least make everyones mouth drop. My funeral preperations which would include me wrapped in a linnen and then carried to the woods and burried on Cold Mountain NC I couldn't begin to guess how many people I have (in my family) burried in these mountains and there is no place I would rather store my frame in solitude.
