Strange Remains Week: Mummies, Gems and the Moon
Tallying $67,000, modern mummification isn’t for everyone…but it’s Available at SUMMUM.
These guys have resurrected (no pun intended) the ancient Egyptian art. You can see a description of the process here.
If you prefer something smaller in size and significantly more sparkly, there is LifeGem.
Love. Life’s single greatest risk. Life’s single greatest reward. Love captures your heart in a second and holds it for eternity. You have experienced a love without equal.
You have had someone truly special in your life and mere words simply will not do.
Your very own LifeGem diamond(s) can be created from the carbon in cremation ashes, a lock of hair, or both. Of course, not only do we turn ashes into diamonds and hair into diamonds, we also have a full line of cremation jewelry, rings, and pendants to accent your beautiful LifeGem cremation diamond.
Or if you’d like your death to involve a space odyssey, you can be shot into the cosmos.
Celestis Memorial Spaceflights place a symbolic portion of cremated remains into Earth orbit, onto the lunar surface, and into deep space. Missions into space that return the cremated remains to Earth are also available. Your loved one will venture into space as part of a real space mission, riding alongside a commercial or scientific satellite.
Celestis offers a number of options (click to enlarge):

Wow… I had no idea there were so many options. I guess the cool thing about ashes is you can separate them out and put a few sprinkles in space, a few on the moon, a few in the sea, a few for a tiny diamond and so on. Better save a bit for Mars!

I do not doubt there is an egregiously wealthy person out there who would want to do all that.

I wouldn’t mind haunting the moon forever…

You’d get plenty of peace and quiet!
