Its hard not to worry though.

But I trust you'll handle it on a good fashion. I was in this situation once before. It WILL get better.

Lol he's my favorite character! I was shocked to find out he's played by Mike Myers. :what:

Thank you. I just try to be supportive. :thumbup:

So his funeral was today. I think it was calming, and provided me with just enough closure.

But seeing my family struggle with unpaid funeral debts had me concerned for my future. So I decided to look into buying a plot and casket. Possibly getting a mausoleum? Maybe if I get enough money. I'm only 20 so I have a decent but limited amount of time.

Just curious if I move to another country (renouncing my citizenship I'm about 8-10 years) can I be buried in America?

(Moving to either Canada or France)

That's great. I'm glad it gave you some comfort. Just don't be surprised by emotions that come up--and they will. As I've said before, there's no time limit on grieving. How did your grandmother handle the funeral?

Cremation isn't as expensive, especially if you choose not to be interred at a mausoleum. Your relatives (or anyone you choose) can either keep your ashes (in an urn, for example, which can be bought elsewhere besides the mortuary that does the cremation), or you can have your ashes scattered or buried somewhere meaningful to you. Also, there are burial insurance policies you can buy, where you pay X amount now and when the time comes, the insurance company covers the actual cost.

Good question! I really don't know. Hopefully someone else will.

She's kind of out of it, but she's alot better. I don't really want to be cremated. (I want to get multiple plots so my family doesn't have to worry about room) I found a copper casket with black padding for around $1,500
The cemetery I want to be buried in has a deal where 8 plots in a sectioned off part of the park for around $45,000 and about $350,000 for a mausoleum for I think it was 4 or 6? Either way I know with the profession ill have after college I'd be able to afford 8 coffins for future family members. Including the plots as well. They'd probably be on their oown with the headstones since I don't know where to get headstones at and the ones they offer are $11,000 a piece..

A big hurdle for me are the guns I will be inheriting. I'll have about 2 from my grandpa and 2 I had got myself. I'm not sure how Canadians view their citizens arming themselves, and I know France pretty much forbids it.

I think Canada has concealed carry? I haven't really looked into it. I'll probably get a dual citizenship with Canada and France though. Woop Woop. :thumbup:
