About 2 feet or so the top of the urn is at least 6 inches under so sod will grow over it.

The snow isn''t the only problem. Here in NW Wisconsin we may have a foot of frozen ground to get through too. Winter burials can be very difficult.

Generally if there are cremations, the family decides if they want two burials on one grave. If so then in the 5x10 foot graves the first cremation is put about 1/3 of the distance from the west boundary and the second 2/3. Some couples have a single urn for both of them. When it is a full burial, then only one person is allowed.

@@RiverRoadRambler oh thank you so much for explaining. God bless you

Burials are not under tombstones. The stones are at either the head or foot of the grave area (4x10 foot grave). The first cremation on a grave is buried 1/3 of the way from the west end of the grave. If a second cremation is done on the same grave it is done 2/3 of the way from the west end (in our cemetery). Tombstones mark the end of the grave and they are in a line north and south. Full burials are with the casket laid east to west, with the person's head on the west. The tradition is in Christian burials and comes from the idea that Jesus will come from the east on the second coming, and the dead rise from the grave facing east. Walking over the buried bodies is a part of how cemeteries are designed.

Oil burning stoves are rather rare nowadays. There were many different types and some started easier than others. The Jungers was complicated. Jungers use #1 furnace oil, rather expensive to buy. The Jungers has no need for electricity, so that is a plus. To find a stove, try searching craigslist or Facebook Marketplace. I do have two of them stored away in a barn in NW Wisconsin.

Some people like the idea of having a gravestone and being buried in a cemetery with other members of their family. If the cost bothers you, donate your body to medical research and your family will have your ashes returned and then you can avoid the cost of cremation, burial, stone etc. My own plan is to donate my body to research and have the ashes buried in a cemetery lot with a stone with my name on it. The cost will be the cemetery grave -- $350 at the cemetery in this video, a stone for about $400 and some cemetery costs to dig the hole -- get out of life with cemetery burial and stone for under $1000. If I didn't want the grave and stone it would be all free, and the medical research could help others.

Yeah! Anyway to make money 😢😢😢 No Respect!!!!!

@@dalegrays8053 People have the right to choose their burial type. If they choose a cemetery, a stone etc., then it will cost money as the cemetery has to pay for all the maintenance. The cemetery in this video pays about $2000 - 2500 per year just for the lawn mowing. The cemetery has been in existence since 1857 and many local families have 5 generations of their family in the cemetery. They want to be buried (or their ashes) near the rest of their family. The cemetery here has an all volunteer unpaid board, and contracts for someone to dig the graves, install the stones etc;, witn NO money coming to the cemetery other than the actual grave payment. If a customer wants a grave dug, they pay the digger, just like if you had hired a tree planted in your yard. If they want a stone, they buy it and have the seller install it. Those are all choices made by people with the cemetery just providing the space and the ongoing maintenance of the cemetery.

Sorry about your mother. My brothers and I did that with my mother when she passed away 10 years ago.

sorry about that

I think that after I am gone, it would seem better to have folks walking by or over me than no one at all coming by. In a cemetery, one must walk over other graves to get to those nearby. When a burial is held, maybe 100 folks gather around a grave to say good bye, and of course they must stand on other graves. I like the idea of someone walking by and noticing my gravestone and wondering about me and my life, and if they stop and stand on me as they wonder, that would be fine. My own idea of a cemetery visit it to walk along a row of gravestones reading the inscriptions and wondering about the life of the person buried there. In a local cemetery, it is like walking though a neighborhood of friends, relatives and neighbors.

sorry about that

That part of the cemetery is virgin soil -- not every farmed or otherwise disturbed. There is about 12 inches of topsoil and then underneath sand.

The ashes are usually in an urn and often the urn is in another container (a small casket). We have found that an 18x18x18 inch hole is about right for that situation. Of course if the ashes were not in containers the opening could me much smaller. Since we often are not told what the urn or casket size is, the hole we dig is an estimate of the largest size needed. The burial urn and casket here fit well, but another one the same week was 17x16x15 and the hole was just big enough.

When we know in advance the size that is what we do. But most of the time nowadays, people take the ashes from the funeral home and buy their own burial container, and sometimes add a vault. The 18x18x18 opening shown in the video was about 1 inch wider than the urn and its vault. One recent burial was in a round urn shaped like a foot ball helmet with the team colors. Some are in small cardboard boxes. We want the urn deep enough so that grass will grow over the top -- at least 8 inches of soil above it.

That's how me and my sister done with our moms ashes. We didn't do all the measuring like they did. We used post hole diggers for her ashes. We went about 18 inches deep and about 9 inches square.

Depends on state laws, which are individual.

as an observer of cemetery activities, yes largest cemetery in so cal, back hoes, workers , piles of dirt, many many people frequently steps all over other peoples graves, head stones, Every day, its just impossible to avoid, when there is too many people attending grave site burials.

There is it called a hand tamper

There’s a tamper you can use gently

It is disrespectful-😢

​@cessealbeach I agree. When my grandparents passed, the whole was EXACTLY the size of the liner (which was already in the ground). One was buried at 12 ft the other at 6 ft. We had just family at the graveside and even then we were stepping on markers. It was completely unavoidable.

I know how heavy ashes are. Held my late lady's ashes in the box they came in. Was ultimately the last time I held her. Been 3½, going 4 years since she's been gone.

@@christophermccarthy6192 what did she pass from ? You have your memories. No one can take away . Stay strong. And merry Christmas 🎅 🎄. GOD BLESS YOU

@@christophermccarthy6192 so sorry. My mom passed from that also. Take care of yourself .she will always be by your side no matter what.

@@dianapickett3793 thank you

At the end of the video he said it was an urn. You can tell it is as when they were filling the hole you can see the guy using the shovel to spread dirt around the urn.

Asheswhere is the

😮😮7😮😮😮😮

Then they'll piss and shit allover you 😺

Mr. Erving G. Doty

Thank you

The tarp with damp earth was far too heavy to do that. An 18x18x18 inch hole has almost 6 cubic feet of damp earth. That weighs about 500 lbs.

When you are 77 and have heart disease like I do, maybe you will get out of breath a little too ;-)

My father in law passed away 2016 and was cremated. When his wife died in 2022 we placed his ashes in her coffin when she passed in 2022. He died from sepsis. She died from dementia.

No hay traduccions i no entenen res. Gracias.

I didn't use a vault for my father's urn. I placed it right into the grave with my hands. It was covered in dirt.

​@mikeklimczak9600 My cemetery wouldn't let me bury my nephew without the vault!

No there isnt

There is , it would cost one $10K, yes in So Cal plus $ opening and sealing Vault

In Deutschland ist auch ein Bestattungsunternehmer und Friedhofsverwaltung dafür zuständig.

It depends on the cemetery. If it is a small country cemetery the rules are more lax.
