As you’ve said, an urn can travel with you anywhere you go. If ever that I get to plan my own funeral, I will definitely choose cremations o that my family can take me wherever state they can to go since my family loves to move from one state to another.

I wouldn’t want my ashes to get mixed together with someone else’s. I feel like that would not make anyone happy with that outcome.

At the same time, you can actually skip the funeral home and arrange for the services to be done at home, even–as long as you book for the cremation rites to be done at a funeral parlor. While I haven’t pre-planned for the inevitable yet, at least it’s good to know that you have the option of being cremated should you choose for it.

I suppose that if I won’t be cremated along with other people, my body should be safe. If I can be religious and be cremated at the same time, I’ll be sure to get a plan because it does not say in my religion that it’s not allowed to do so.
