The body of you or your loved one being respectfully touched and honored by family and friends, not by strangers
The creation of an altar, extended wake, or personalized grieving experience true to your core beliefs, whatever they may be
Family and friends decorating or building a casket or urn in tribute as a healing act of closure
Environmentally-friendly disposition (cremation, green burial, reef balls, etc.)
