I intend to donate my body parts and have the remains cremated. I will not take up space in the cemetery and my ashes will be spread in the garden. But the best thing is it will save my family close to $8,000 (we spent $11,000 on my mother's funeral). They can then use this money to plant more trees, shrubs and flowers to filter the air, feed the insects and let the bees make honey! That would be good for the environment.
