Yup. After I'm gone, I don't want my family to feel obligated to maintain my final resting place, or feel tied to that geographical location. I want them to cremate me, scatter my ashes in the mountains, and keep me in their memories. That's all I can ask.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

My dad is buried in Kansas, my mom in Missouri and my daughter in Texas. Have never been back to my parent’s sites since their death and not really even sure where they are buried. Do visit my daughter’s burial site and place yellow tulips there once a month.

I have already told my son to have me cremated and put half of the ashes on the top of the mountain at Lionshead in Colorado and half in the Gulf of Mexico. Then go out and celebrate the fact that I had a good life, great friends, and know that they will see me later. Also remind him and my grandsons that although I may not be on this earth any longer, I can see everything they do!
