How do you want to go out?

With that said, how do you want to go out?[/QUOTE]

Hmm - to me the body is just a vehicle for the soul so I don't really care what happens to it - I think being an organ donor is the way to go. If I can help others extend their time for learning more life lessons then this is fantastic.

Short of that I'd like a great big funeral pyre. I just don't think any local government will let my S/O have a bonfire in the yard!

Yeah, all of the people (very few) who I am very close to and who would possibly have decision to make when I die know that I want to be a donor. I'm in the official Arizona donor registry, and I intend on making it known on my license or ID card or whatever (when I get one).
I thought this would be a really sad thread, but it got me thinking alot, in a good way. Like most, I don't want there to be a sad funeral when I die. I'm thinking a lot about this as I type, but there are a few things that I know for sure. I want to be cremated, and I want to be spread over a mountain in Croatia in a helicopter (with either my mom or my wife doing the spreading). I want a big party afterwords on the mountain with all my close friends and family, I am going to specifically request that certain relatives are not invited. Music will be played, I'm not sure yet what exactly. There will be pizza and hamburgers and dessert, and everyone will tell stories about good times they remember with me and funny things I did. There will be pictures of me at my happiest times, and everyone there will be encouraged to take one picture home to remember me by (I know from experiance how hard it is to find pictures of a loved one after they have passed away). Now that I've typed all this, I realize that I want to put this in my will or a safe or something.... somehow make sure that the people in charge of what happens after my death know all of this.

Cremated, and having some or all the ash packed into either fireworks or shotgun shells, going out with a bang, or I'll be my own 21 gun salute. skip the whole funeral scene I never did like a crowd why draw one up just because I am down, if friends and family want to have a little private bash thats cool, but keep it small and low key, might as well go out silent in the night.
