A place to talk death and dying issues

@threetree and @maggie15 Thank you so much. I will check out both.

I’m sorry for the loss of your mother, @maggie15

@kbl - could you just talk to funeral homes/crematoriums in the two locations to see what your options are? Then, you could come up with a Plan A and Plan B, so to speak.

@seeq Yes, once I get home, I’ll call and make an appointment with the one funeral home I was thinking about. I will keep everyone posted on what I decide.

Kbl, are your two places very far apart (like in a different state)? The arrangements I've made with my local funeral home include picking me up out of county, if I happen to pass away when I'm not at home. They gave me a laminated card that I carry in my wallet, so if I'm alone, like at a hotel or in a car accident (hoping neither of those scenarios occurs!) then they will be called.

@sf-cakes Yes, it’s two different states, about 420 miles between homes.
