  • So what happens if you purchased a plot at one of the Traditional camps (SSPX, etc.), and then joined a different one? Do you get a refund, or will they allow you to be buried in original place where you purchased the plot? Will the funeral insurance cover such issues?
    I don't know if SSPX or any trad group has their own cemetery, but whatever the cemetery, they'd buy it back.

  • A few things, one a joke, others not a joke. This man said he was going to be cremated because he didn't want to wake up in the coffin and hear the clay being piled upon him. 

    There are in fact some people who are absolutely terrified that they'll be buried alive somehow.  But if you're embalmed, there's no risk of that whatsoever.

    If it were me, I'd try to sell it to the faithful of the "Traditional camps" at the fair market price.

    The funeral insurance will pay-out a lump sum. 

    Make-up a funeral planner, that includes a budget and the details of your burial ahead of time.
