Which do you want?

[Samantha Puppy]

I want to be carefully preserved (like Lenin or Eva Peron) and placed inside a double-wide glass casket so that I may be with my husband (fiance now). And Samantha could lay at the bottom of the casket, like she does with us now.

I don't want to be cremated. It'll hurt.

I don't want to be buried because: 1) I don't want to decompose; and 2) I'm afraid people will forget about me.

So yeah, put me in a glass casket with Josh and Samantha, make sure we're all really well preserved, and then maybe I won't haunt you. Otherwise, I most definitely will not be resting in peace!!

Has anyone heard of "green burials"? It is a very different concept, and apparently very popular in the UK.

Here's one article I found about one locally:

Green Burial

Here's another Q/A page about green burials:

Cremation is my choice too. But even if that happens, I want the casket to be closed. I cannot bear, even this late in life, to see an open casket, even when it is one of my loved ones. I would much rather remember and be remembered as I was when I was alive.

That is exactly how I feel.

Also I want my cremation remains to be combined with those of my RB dogs, and then spread in a woods or some other natural setting.

I don't even want a memorial service, unless it is out in a park somewhere where people can come and bring their dogs and maybe have a picnic or something.
