Its like what Churchill said when told that his Mother-in-Law had died.

After a pause, he said: Embalm her. Cremate her, and bury her at sea. Take no chances.

“Embalm, cremate, and bury. Take no chances.”

Churchill said this upon hearing of the death of Stanley Baldwin, the former prime minister with whom he had differed. Baldwin had refused to build up the military while Hitler was rearming and preparing for war.
