Dealing with a death of a friend or family member is not an easy thing to handle and so deciding for a natural burial and a natural cemetery can be difficult as well. When deciding on where to place your loved one, there are many options that can be chose but it is usually up to the person who has died. Usually, if at a certain age, the loved one has written a will that will greatly help on giving them what they wanted and equally sharing what they have left behind. In a case where there is no will, the situation can become increasingly more difficult, so please persuade your family to have prepared and updated wills as they increase in age.
Though it may seem a bit morose, it is important to mentally organize yourself for death and death around you. It must be understood that even though it is tragic, it happens all the time and that there is a time for everyone. Handling a painful loss can be devastating as it is, but delaying it will only make it worse. Planning the funeral immediately and getting over the grief is the best thing that you can do in that type of situation.
When someone passes away, they have a few different ways in which they can be buried. Many people choose to have a traditional burial in which the body is preserved and then they are lowered into the ground by a casket in a customary ceremony. Some people like the method of cremation. By taking this path it saves your family a lot of money and it is very simple because when it all comes down to it, you are simply turned to ash. Some people think of it as a spiritual thing and their family will either save or spread their ashes by the sea, for example.
Either way, you have to choose a way that you would like to be buried at your very own funeral. If you do not discuss it with a family member, it should at least be written down in a notarized will. Sometimes death cannot be planned and it happens out of the blue where no one sees it coming. In this case it is up to the remainder of the family to decide what happens, but in the victim's best concern of course. A funeral is never fun, but if you can make it more about the happy remembrance of a person rather than the depressing thoughts, it can be a better time than you think.
Normally, you would not think of a funeral as a fun event, because it is dark, remorseful, and often sad, but it is important to look back on the good times and remember a person in good times. More recently people have even set up bright funerals in which the color black is not permissible. Funerals are inevitable and have become simplified without a spiritual setting in most situations. - 29958
