Then, if you are going to bury said cremains, you have to have the cremains filled urn buried in a mini vault. Which kind of resemble the Ark of the Covenant.
Hope you are not angry, I find funereal trappings amusing.

Right "cremains"... that kinda cracks me up too.
I wasn't too sure that was correct but when calling to get a niche for my mom I had to use it.
I was like... "I need a spot for my mom's... umm... cremains?" She was like "Oh is she passed on?"... I'm like WTH? Of course she's passed on, why the hell else would she be cremains?
To top that off she's like "would you like to stay for the placement?"... I said "Well yeah I would think so." and she's like... "Well I ask because we have to take her out of the box because the box won't fit..."
(again WTH?)...
..."so we have to kind of squeeze the bag into the hole... "
WTH? I'm thinking like well no, we probably rather not see that but I think we'd have to hang out just to make sure they didn't put her in a wonder bread bag and hide her in the wall... I mean for cripes sake.
Anyway, yep "cremains"... (and yep I placed her somewhere else).
