You were asked – TMP link

A famous musician recently shared that he asked his mother why she supported his music interest, and she told him that she had once wanted to be a performer. She has since passed away, and in her honor, he sprinkles some of her ashes whenever he plays Carnegie Hall or other prestigious venues. When you pass on, would you like some of your ashes sprinkled at your favorite gaming venues?

I have told my friends to have me cremated, take my ashes to Liverpool, and pour them in the river.

That way I'll know that there will always be Mersey on my soul.

I want some of mine sprinkled in Bryant Denny stadium, the beach, and rest dumped in the lake. May even lay a little claim to the Appalachian Mtns.

I have no interest in what happens to my ashes.

I once worked in a school, the headmaster of which kept the ashes of his first wife in a small urn in the home he shared with his second wife. The story I heard was that one day the cleaner accidentally knocked the urn over, spilling its contents all over the floor. She could only tidy them up by using a vacuum cleaner. Then, worried lest the headmaster might notice there was less ash in the urn, she refilled it from the ashtrays!
