#urns — Public Fediverse posts

Vienna is different. It's where they talk about disposal of human remains, #funerals, #urns, and penalties for disposing of #human ashes on the #morning #radio show at 7:50 am. And have a #laugh about it.
Gotta admire #Vienna for their love of #dying . #ViennaIsDifferent

#WordyWednesday: Keepsake Urn

A miniature version of an urn designed to hold a very small token amount of cremated remains. Ideal for families who are splitting their loved one up among several people. They're sometimes chosen for infants and pets. Capacities can range from one to fifty cubic inches (regular urns hold around two hundred cubic inches).

Keepsake urns don't have to match the main urn! You can choose from a variety of shapes and colors, including jewelry (typically holds a few grains up to a small pinch of cremated remains).

Rule of thumb: one pound of pre-cremation weight will yield approximately one cubic inch of cremated remains. A 150 lb. person = 150 cubic inches. HOWEVER, that's a guideline that depends on factors like height, bone density, and cremation container.

If you're buying an urn (full size or keepsake) online, ALWAYS check the capacity! Photos can be misleading. Know whether you're looking at a regular urn or a keepsake. Consult with your mortuary for guidance and try to err on the larger side. Cremated remains that don't fit into the urn(s) provided must be attached to the side in a temporary cardboard or plastic urn.
