So, less people did it in the 2000's, the 90's and earlier, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. Besides, lots of things happen that we know and don't know, but we comment on these we know.

Exactly, and when you see their dead body... It makes me want to cry. It depends on what they want, but even then, both are sad in some way. I think i said it and i will repeat again, i don't wanna be cremated because i want my body as evidence that i ever lived. Cremating has some uncomfortable feeling to it, because it feels like that person was never alive to begin with.
I respect your wishes just like I know you will respect my wishes TO be cremated. Reason I want that is because
I want my family to be able to have my remains with them whereever they go so they don't feel lonely-plus I really
just don't want to sit in the ground and rot, be eaten by ants and all that. I mean, granted, nowadays they make
coffins out of steel and all that so unlike, say, back in the 1940s-1960s there's much less chance insects or worms
will get to the body, still, I don't want that. If I was buried, my family would have to go to the cemetery to be near
me, but this way, they can always have me with them. My Mom and Dad want to be cremated as well and I'm sure
having their ashes with me will bring me much comfort after they're gone. But hey, you do you. Do whatever you're
happy with, and feel peaceful about. I have my two dogs' and my cat's ashes with me, too, and my grandmother's,
because she also wanted to be cremated. Whatever you want done with your body, the only important thing is that
you leave behind a beautiful legacy for your family to remember. And even after you're gone, they won't be alone.
Just like they say in the Kingdom Hearts games, no matter what, that person you loved will always be with you in
your heart, so it's like they never left. Death can never take that away.
