[quote=Anonymous]We always did wakes for my grandparents and great uncles/aunts, but my parent’s generation is opting for cremation so far. Part of that is that many are eligible for Arlington but only if cremated (plus their spouse). Easier to get into the columbarium there. I always found wakes to be creepy - I hated that my main memory of my grandparents was their dead body in a casket but it makes quite an impression when you are a child. We are Irish/Slovak as well.
