My mom died 2 years ago and I skipped the whole viewing thing, had her cremated, and just had a memorial service at her church a couple of weeks later. Half of her ashes went next to dad in the cemetery I never visit, and the other half got scattered in the bay at Cape Cod, a few under the bushes at the place we always stay, and I've got some more still hanging around, not Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-468223150447785936.post-83487946335583409652012-06-17T11:11:03.567-07:002012-06-17T11:11:03.567-07:00Huh.

They passed away 10 years ago, about 6 months apart. Mom first. At Dad's viewing (why oh why do we have those?) the lady from the funeral home came into where the five of us "boys" were sitting. She was in her navy blue somber suit with somber face to match and asked us if we intended to have Dad cremated.
