Is Cremation the right choice for you? Consider these when making a decision:
1) Cremation opens up more options, not less. When you choose cremation, you can still choose service and celebration of life options. You get to decide how cremated remains are dispersed: scattering, urn placement, burial and more.
2) Cremation is a permanent decision. It’s best to think through this decision, and be sure it discuss it with your loved ones.
3) Some religions and denominations have different views on cremation as a final disposition. If a religious funeral is a priority for you, make sure you know your religion’s stance on cremation.
4) Cremation is still a relatively new choice and therefore concerns arise regarding respect of the body and respect for cremated remains. It’s important to note that only the highest standards exist for cremation, just like burial.

Have you heard of the "last-year test?" If this year were your last, what would you do differently? " The purpose of this test - meditation on death - is to help us reflect on our lives, teaching us how to live each moment mindfully.
This article from NYT also shares meditation practices performed by Buddhist monks, including co**se meditation. If you read to the end of the article, you'll see that there's evidence to support that contemplating death and mortality might actually make you funnier. Read it and let us know what you think: https://nyti.ms/3r19QpG

Dress appropriately even you are just attending funeral service virtually. You may ask the family if they have dress code so you could follow, since you should always err on keeping the camera on as it shows a certain level of respect.

Keep the microphone muted unless it's your turn to speak or deliver a eulogy. Unnecessary sound may cause distractions to the funeral service, and since you can't be sure how they have their audio settings set up you don't want to risk interrupting anyone.
