A Priest or a Nun....they can be fun you know Dea

They will come meet you and chat about his life and such and remark on such during the service

And he will wish to be in the ground....not cremated

Hactually R.C.'s can now be cremated but the ashes are to be interred. Hope it all goes as well as can be expected Dea.

I was just thinking that Renes........our Sylvs is a proper gadabout!

Glad you're better though Sylvs....... :-D


Renes, it means that a Roman Catholic may now be cremated (at one time it was not allowed), but their ashes must be buried, maybe in a family grave or special area set aside for cremated remains, as opposed to being scattered.

Is that helpful?

Hiya all

Yes I am still here been busy doing bits and pieces.

Spent a nice afternoon with youngest daughter, she is growing up into a little lady.

I remember my youngest aunt who is 63 now wearing pelmets and frilly knickers to match, great big black hair do and huge false eyelashes. She has some business doing cosmetic stuff now and has treated some famous people according to her web page...looks remarkably good for her age unless its a very old photo

Just wondered as we have had 2 cremations --- the last on Sat ( she was a friend of Pauls with Cancer who we hoped would make it) I remarked that her nicho would be next to Paul and I was told that her ashes would be scattered at her families cortijo and my friends Uncle -- who died 3 days after Paul -- ashes were either buried or scattered over his olive trees

Neither having a nicho ---- all RC naturally ( for a moutain village - )

Morning everyone, hope you have had a nice weekend.

Persie, yes I know about Bunnings.. the only place the other half liks to go shopping in...and can spend hours looking and come out with a 20 cent piece of sandpaper!

Sylvia, hope that you are feeling better and your stomach pain has gone.

Oh yuck fancy seeing that sight on the bus..no knickers! that would put you of your breakfast! LOL what would have happened if she had been hit by the bus..I thought you always had to wear clean knickers just in case!

My mother died in 1985 and we kept her ashes at home... she had always said her ashes would be buried with her parents... no way was my dad going there. When dad died in 1998 we put both lots of ashes in the military cemetery with the most fantastic view and they have their copper plaque with their ranks and the fact that she was in the NZ expeditionary forces in the war.
I am happier they are both together.

My OH's uncle died in 1986 and it was only last year that his ashes (again kept at our place) were scattered from a certain pylon up in what is known as the Rimutukas ... just north of Wellington. He had to arrange with our Transpower company to go there and do it. We have donated a lot of his uncle's memorabilia to their museum. He was an engineer and responsible for the building of pylons.

On a lighter note... my boss where I worked did not approve of my mini skirts so he gave me a couple of longer smocks to wear... I shortened them.. and sometimes I would wear these bright orange knickers under them and my friend called me pumpkin bum..

Persie....

Hope you are feeling better Sylvia.. <3

All this RC talk we now have the confessional open.

And I must've been naughty because my emoticons have disappeared.

Pressed refresh and now they feel much better and have come back.
;-)

I will do the odd meal ... and when I say odd I could very well mean odd.
