He was a real fatty, so his ashes came in two containers. I'm not sure how I ended up with one, but I usually win the "who has the strangest thing in their car" game.

I think doing something to honor their memory is a good thing, and if 'grandma' was the kind of person who would find this hilarious, or come up with it herself, then it's cool.

She doesn't want you to eat it. And the real question is whether it is better to refrigerate the bread or not. *Sigh...that's Grannie's fiber supplement. She doesn't want you to eat it.

With that said, I think it's always good to respect the wishes of your deceased loved ones. I think I would just want the loved ones I left behind to do what they need to do to move on.

Why would they care if you disrespect them? Their dead... aka. the caring impaired. When I die, I could care less if my ashes end up in a fridge, or heck, even just have my body tossed in a ditch to rot. I'd kind of not care considering I'd be lifeless meat at best.

I believe that if you don't have a sense of humor about death, it's pretty hard to have a sense of humor about life. That's awesome!
