"Site du Jour of the Day (010504) May 4, 2001 The Busy Person's Guide to Creating Your Own Funeral Or Memorial Service http://wz.com/people/CreatingYourOwnFuneral.html

It's certainly not something we give a lot of thought to during our lives, but our end of life memorial service will be the biggest party we are ever the guest of honor at. Cultural traditions often dictate a somber event, but with the largest segment of the population here in North America heading into the last half of a normal life-span, things will most certainly change. Conventions are changing, people are living longer, playing harder, and the options for the last farewell are more numerous than ever before. Nobody likes to think of their own death, even though we all know that Death's long black train is coming. Deciding how to dress the platform may give us a certain degree of control over how we depart Ñ based on our collective behavior of the last few decades it's probably a safe bet that there will be an awful lot of party trains.

The Busy Person's Guide to Creating Your Own Funeral Or Memorial Service is a portal moderated by Stephanie West Allen. Pointers to other sites and original content provide a starting point for anyone interested in taking care of things financial and emotional as best they can before checking out. While there may be more serious sites addressing this issue, The Busy Person's Guide to Creating Your Own Funeral Or Memorial Service offers a novel approach to a very difficult subject.

Not currently listed at The Busy Person's Guide to Creating Your Own Funeral Or Memorial Service is Eternal Reefs (http://www.eternalreefs.com/ ) (see Reef Ball Development Group Ltd.'s Reef Ball (http://www.reefball.com/ ) (SdJotD 000509)). Eternal Reefs allow people to become a part of a Reef Ball after death. Cremated remains are included in the concrete mix and a memorial plaque is fastened to the artificial reef before submersion. Perhaps a bit much for some, but a cruise for 150± people would sure beat having everyone fight over your money once you've departed.
