Going home in a box (or urn)

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Bury me then plant a tree over me, i'll be home, as i am from this planet.
Any other option would be a waste of money & time

I always thought that burning is a good option, because ashes are less cumbersome. HOWEVER, incinerating humans may be going out of fashion due to global air pollution, climate change etc. Not sure what the experts say on this. :ugeek:
I think I heard something about composting your body as the next new eco-friendly way to dispose of oneself when the time comes ?

You should check out their FB page and see the reviews written about them so far....pretty good stuff.

On the other hand check out what the other funeral service provider for expats (Allison/Monkhouse) has to offer by taking a glance at their FB page:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/John-All ... 9001399705

Nothing.....no pictures......no reviews.....no professional effort whatsoever. That's how much Allison/Monkhouse cares

Speaking from experience in having gone through the death of a loved one here and attending the so called funeral "services" of Allison Monkhouse....administered by that fat bastard Hans Rutten who oversaw the cremation of my friend by burning him along with the daily garbage (yes you read that right!! Hans Rutten burned my friend along with GARBAGE!!! IT WAS HORRIFYING!!) and charged my friend's family for things and services that they did not actually provide (the "transportation/removal fee" ($250) was paid directly to the police by my friend's girlfriend.....my friend's family got an invoice from Rutten charging them $250 for removal/transportation.) Rutten/Monkhouse are nothing better than inhuman crooks!! I'd much rather go with Osborn Funeral Services than dealing with Rutten/Monkhouse if given the choice. I have let it be known to my friends and co-workers here and family back home that if my untimely time comes....PLEASE CALL OSBORN!!! DON'T LET ME BE BURNED WITH GARBAGE!!!

I've also heard that Clive Allison (who occasionally comes to town when warranted) fancies the company of VERY young girls.....might be just a rumor but we know how it goes here don't we gentlemen??

As to "going home in a box or an urn - it doesn't matter when you're dead"......I'm sure it will matter to your friends/family who will be left with the bill for your services. Would you really rather they be charged by Rutten for things he didn't provide and for burning you like so much garbage?? Would YOU want to be cremated along with garbage??

The choice is yours my friends!! I know I've made mine!!
Lol, this chick was totally the undertakers wife at the time
