My nephew suicided a few months ago. He had 2 services, both from JW elders. First one at the crematorium, 2nd at the hall.
He was cremated. I don't think I've been to JW funeral in Aus where the person was buried.
My father in law (a top bloke) died 12 years ago, he's still in our wardrobe somewhere. jmack just hasn't decided where
his final resting place will be. (Yes he was cemated)
When my grandfather died in the early 70's he was cremated. The crematorium rang grandma up months after and asked
what did she want done with the ashes. She'd forgotten about them, and they were of no significance to her. Maybe my mob
don't get attached to remains, it may be an Aussie thing.
When I die, I told the missus to cremate me and send me to Bondi. I want the full tour of Sydney's sewer system. Full flush too,
none of this half flush for me.
