    Don't really care since I'll be dead...but never liked the idea of open casket and embalming...pretty creepy. Either bury me right away or cremate me.

    I'd just want it to be a group of people all sharing stories of the good things I've done and the good times they had with me. And maybe some bits of my writing if they can be salvaged. But I hope I don't have a funeral for many a decade from now o.0

    Drape a rainbow flag over my casket and tell funny stories about me and read off a list of the funniest things I said in life.

    I haven't really thought about it to be honest.. I would probably want something simple, a celebration of my life.. Maybe a still picture video with music to it.. I haven't decided what I want to happen with my body, I guess I should because you never know when your time is going to be up.. I am still young but this thread does bring up the fact that no one will live forever and we need to be prepared for the worst, but still live in the now.

    I don't want a funeral. Neither should anyone mourn.

    I don't know, I don't plan on being there when it happens.

    I'd prefer to have organs and tissue donated to recipients upon my death, then I want cremated. After that, I would like a private ceremony of family and friends. As regards to my ashes, I want 1/4 of them scattered at my current house where I have lived all of my childhood. The remaining 3/4 would go to my family members, and 1/4 would go to my spouse or partner if I have one, to which he can either keep until his death, or if he is already dead and buried I'd like for my ashes to be buried alongside him.

    That's what I WANT at least. It's not like I'll be conscious to know if they did it or not.
