#colma — Public Fediverse posts on home.social

Was just going to ask my survivors to sprinkle my remains over the graves of my parents at #WoodlawnCemetary in #Colma (instead of dumping them in the ocean) but I'm currently thinking about buying a niche at the #Columbarium in #SF (now owned & operated by the Neptune Society) which is a beautiful & historic site at which your remains can be interred.

I already picked out a niche that I like but the ask asking price of $47K for about 1 cubic feet of space is giving me pause.

I can afford it but do I really need to buy a permanent place to store my remains that costs nearly $50K? 🧐

I'm still thinking about it. 🤔

Planning for your #death is expensive . . .

8 yrs ago I paid $2.5k for a cremation plan w/the #NeptuneSociety & I'm finalizing a new #WillAndTrust for another $2.5k now.
