next of kin makes that call.

I believe they make that call even if the person did specify their wishes, it's just a question of if the next of kin wants to honor their wish.

By posting this message I'm ensuring that my ashes will be made into pancakes and served at the idol group dormitories in Saitama, Japan.

I wanted my remains to be scattered at Disneyland. I also don't want to be cremated.

Assuming you have no next of kin then the decision is left to the state. I would assume in most cases that would mean donated to medical science or cremation, which ever is cheaper.

There are wounds that never show on the body that are deeper and more hurtful than anything that bleeds.

This is literally happening to my boyfriend right now. His mom just passed and didnt leave a will so the rest of the family is stressed trying to figure out what to do. It isnt a fun time for anyone.

I'd prefer cremation. It's cheaper than a burial. Do what you will with the ashes; I'm dead, so I won't have any hard feelings lol

They do. My mother in law wanted to be cremated and spread over the Rockies, but she was vastly overestimating the effort we were gonna go through for her. She did get cremated, but we just put her ashes in a closet.

I actually don't remember what we ended up doing with them, come to think.

Ive deliberately specified in my will that its my wifes decision, because I know shell want to have me buried here but others will want me shipped home. Itd be her decision either way, but by specifying it should end any arguments before they begin.

David Cross said something similar but if I said it I would be modded.
