#3 As my own mother aged, the two of us took many trips covering large parts of the USA. Particularly in California she noticed the huge cemeteries. I did not comment on them. At one point she told me, "They are using up too much space to bury all the dead people. The living people need the space. I want to be cremated." So that's what happened. When the time came I buried her ashes on the grave site of her oldest sister, who had been buried conventionally in a deep vault. That cemetery puts ashes 2 feet deep and so there is no chance of hitting the deeper gravesite. That same day my cousins also buried the ashes of their mother, my aunt 2 feet from my mother's spot. My aunt had donated her remains for research & her ashes weren't available for years. Years after that one of my cousins was buried over the same spot, 2 feet away. So now family has 4 burials in a single spot, still with room for more.
