[Lekooks] Green Burial

[Kerry Duma]

If any of you have thought about Green Burial,  this is an excellent video

  that
helps us understand it better.  As an environmentalist, it seems to be, by
far the best option.  For example, it says that the amount of CO2 released
with cremations every year in the US is equivalent to the amount released
by 52,000 cars in a year.

Apparently we are lucky to have a cemetery that offers green burial nearby-
Prairie Home Cemetery in Waukesha offers them.  The important thing is to
make your wishes known, do your advanced plan.  My Dad talked about wanting
a "pine box", but he ended up in a typical steel vault/traditional casket,
because the funeral home wouldn't give us any other option.

It's never a bad time to plan for this stuff, and this virus helps us
understand how precious human life is. It's a good time to make a plan.

Stay safe everyone!
