I remember being really shocked at the level of up-sell pressure my father and uncles and I got when my Grammy died.[/quote]
OTOH, when my mother went, she specified cremation in her will, and that funeral arrangements should be as cheap as possible. The funeral people totally respected that, gave me no pressure at all, and she went in the ground in a cardboard box.
