[quote=Anonymous]I think the family should 100% respect the deceased's wishes. It is so disrespectful to do anything other than honor what that person requested. For example, my dad made it clear that he wanted my oldest sister, who passed away before him, buried with him and my mom. My mom passed away first, and they have a tandem grave. My sister had mental health issues and no next of kin other than my parents/me/other living sister. My remaining sister had an issue with burying the cremains with my dad and instead expressed wishes to scatter the ashes. I would not budge and did as my dad requested; the wants of my living sister were secondary. Had my dad not expressly stated what he wanted, I would have gone along with scattering the ashes. The bottom line is that if a person doesn't state what they want, then only then do you have the right to insert your wants. [/quote]
