okay, yes i have thought alot about this probably sense i was a little kid partly due to depression, and the loss of my grandfather to suicide when I was 5.

I've decided over several funerals that i wish to have a closed casket funeral, i also if something bad were to happen to me and i needed to be identified my family immediate family has been told they are not able to identify me or view me once i am pronounced dead. a close friend or extended family will have to do so. I do not want someone to remember me for how i look when im dead but rather how they remembered me. secondly casket i perfer is whatever the cheapest way out for whoever is responsible for this. i don't want anything expensive i'm not going to care i wont be here anyways. as far as the read i don't want the funeral to be all this and that.. i want it to be more of a going away party... celebrate my life.. don't mourn my death.

what effected my decisions for the above... basically i refuse to go up and see anyone in a casket im afraid i wont be able to get that picture out of my head to remember them for how they were... this is the basis for most of my funeral preparations...


something else interesting some of you may find it sick, but i once read an article about a mother that had her sons sperm extracted after his death and frozen, then it was later used to pregnate his girlfriend during his death... i thought this was cool and interesting and so i have also signed a paper that states that it is okay for my family to do so if i don't have a child before my death, and my wife has agreed to this as well... if we don't have a child before.

I never gave much thought to what I want done after I die. I kind of like Knox's idea, minus the sperm extraction. I really wouldn't feel comfortable as a dead person with people looking at my body. At the same time, I don't think I would want a child when I can no longer take care of it.
