Scoville, ya beat me to it. I've had enough time the past couple days to check this thread, but not to post to it.

I discovered the lifestyle caskets from www.artcaskets.com (including the "Return to Sender" one -- and "Fairway to Heaven") a few years ago in GraphicDesign:USA magazine. Right up my alley -- I'm a thanatolithologist. I do research on gravestones and gravestone carvers (particularly New England slate markers from about 1630 to 1815 -- most willows and urns make my eyes glaze over -- and ligatures on gravestones, and the carver John Just Geyer) so I spend a LOT of time in cemeteries and graveyards.

I intend to cut my own slate marker, but I don't intend to be beneath it. Since slow oxidation in the treetops (or residing under my compost pile) is frowned upon by the government, after any usable parts are harvested, I'll probably be cremated with at least some of my ashes scattered over the North Atlantic. (And maybe some around someone's roses.)

Gotta cut this short -- there's a sea music singaround I have to get to.

Later!
