When a friend of mine died, his casket was placed in a niche in a mausoleum at a local cemetery. Before placing the casket in the niche, the cemetery workers wrapped the casket in heavy plastic as though they were stuffing a turkey in the fridge. The casket was then placed on a forklift, which a worker rode up to the niche (it was about third or fourth level high), where he threw some bearings or BBs or something into the niche. The casket was then raised to the level of the opening, and the worker shoved it into the niche like last night’s leftovers. My wife and I stood watching in mute horror at the indignity. When we could speak again, we both agreed we’d rather be fried at death than subjected to that treatment.

Started out the marriage as a husband; ended up as a left-over. “No! Wait! Not the garbage disposal!!…”
