Re: Ashes to Ashes; Dust to Daisies

Such lovely stories from Margaret and Garinda .. great that the last memories of our loved ones are wrapped in a large grin.

Spider: Hope you will leave behind some fit relatives to climb the heights of Pendle Hill, or are you arranging finance for a helicopter drop ?...

Great story on 'confessions' on the Simon Mayo radio show last week. Ok .. missed a bit, but the gist was that relatives were preparing a Christmas Cake in the kitchen. Seeking out some spices, they came across a container and decided these were the ones. Everybody ate the cake with great relish. Week later same container turns up with an accompanying note explaining that 'here are your Uncle Albert's ashes'... The confessor kept his mouth shut that they had all had a taste of Uncle Albert until recent times... great story.
