I know where I'm going when I die. [View all]

No, I'm not concerned about heaven or hell.
I know where I'm going.
I'M GOING TO MEMPHIS!

I've donated my body to medical research.
They come and get you.
NO CHAERGE for transport!
You leave no loose strings behind.
No final expense for my family.
When they're done, your remains are cremated and sent to your designated recipient for memorial service or whatever.

Just a suggestion.
