Maybe a bit extreme but I can't really criticize. It's also kind of cool. I'm not a tattoo person so if I were to do it I would go with something smaller.
My friend who lost her husband in April did one of these orbs with the lighted base:
Artful Ashes - Memorials
It came out really nice.

That's interesting. I have never heard of using a person's ashes to make an ornament.
I would prefer to have mine scattered in the place where I grew up and just disappear. I think it's sort of sad for them
to be kept.
Yes...I am still trying to decide which way I want to go when it's my time. I'd better hurry up! [emoji4]
I'm still not 100% comfortable with cremation for myself but I'm getting there...I think. Neither option seems pleasant. [emoji45]

Yes, you better hurry up !!!!
I don't think that it's fair to leave the decision up to somebody else, especially if you have children.
I can't stand seeing a casket being put into a grave and the thought of being buried is scary.

There seems to be a movement for more environmentally friendly burial. The way they do it now is horrible for the land. I think embalming and all that body preparation is vile.

And I think these burial pods with a tree on top are very interesting, if unconventional!

It'd be hard to argue in favor of the existence of some objective problem with doing this. I only think 'irreverence' applies to human remains when it does damage to the person's living relatives and goes against their wishes.
Anyway, I don't plan on dying if I can manage to avoid it, and I think that, provided I live into the late eighties or so and the human race doesn't extinct itself in the meantime, I probably won't have to. But I'd want an environmentally friendly burial if something happened before that.
