How to Properly Bury Your Memorial
By Colleen Mihelich
When Memorial loss occurs there are several details that must
be attended to. In addition to thinking of ways to
memorialize your Memorial, you must also make a decision on
what to do with the body of your deceased Memorial. While
this certainly seems like the worst decision to make, it
is a necessary one. Many people opt to bury their Memorial in
a Memorial cemetery or in another special outdoor spot, such
as a backyard area or garden.
While burying your Memorial is a difficult thing to do, when
you do it properly, it can actually be a very healing
way to memorialize your Memorial. Many Memorial owners opt to put
Memorial grave markers in the spot where their precious
companion is buried to ensure there is always a spot to
visit and remember the joyous times you shared. There
are however, some things to keep in mind when burying
your Memorial to ensure they are buried in the proper manner.
To start, decide if you are going to bury your Memorial in a
casket or not. There are a number of fairly inexpensive
Memorial caskets available online for those that can't stand
the thought of handling the remains of their Memorial in any
other manner. Some Memorial owners opt to wrap the remains in
a blanket or cloth, sometimes even the Memorial's favorite
blanket (if they had one) and others choose to remain as
natural as possible and bury the remains with nothing at
all. Be sure to dig deep enough so that the remains are
not affected by weather conditions or other animals
scavenging for food. If you have opted to bury your Memorial
in a Memorial cemetery, there is staff on hand that will
usually take of these details for you. Also be sure to
check both with your state and county to find out what
their rules and regulations are regarding Memorial burial.
Once you've placed your Memorial in the grave, you, and
whoever you invited to the burial, might opt to say a
few words or share some thoughts about your Memorial and what
they meant in your life. This is a shortened Memorial
memorial, which can be an accompaniment to the larger,
more elaborate service. Once you've covered the grave,
place a Memorial marker of some sort on the space so you will
always know it's there. Some Memorial owners purchase an
official Memorial grave marker engraved with their Memorial's
name, date of birth, date of death and a favorite saying
or quote about their Memorial. Others choose something more
natural, like planting a tree or plant over the space to
symbolize the great circle of life. This part of the Memorial
memorial is a personal choice and should be decided
according to whatever you feel comfortable doing.
Memorial loss and the subsequent burying of your Memorial can be
such a traumatic process. By conducting a proper burial,
you ensure the remains are ensconced deep in the earth
and not accessible to other scavengers to dig up.
Moreover, using a Memorial headstone or plant or tree of some
sort as a Memorial memorial is a great way to have a constant
and positive reminder of the profound impact your Memorial
had on your life.
