A New Alernative to The Traditional Burial
Most people find death a time for great grief and misery. Although that will never change, the death of a loved one can now mean a time for great discovery and interest. A new underwater memorial site off the coast of Florida, is one of the popular options in the alternatives agains the traditional burial services. These choices vary from outer orbit to the deep blue waters of the sea.
Jerry Norman, the CEO of the Neptune Society, the group that started the new cutting-edge new trend in burial services, says, "The Neptune Memorial Reef provides a natural setting for loved ones, that is also an awe-inspiring destination where family can gather and enjoy. The beautiful setting spreads across 16 acres, just a few miles of the coast of Miami. The reef is a beautiful replica of the city you could only dream of. To top it all off, the city is complete with columns, roads, and gates. However, don't forget to bring your checkbook, a simple placement costs up to $1,500, and a more majestic spot would cost several thousand dollars.
Don't worry though, there's one more option. With just $1,300, you could send up into orbit a portion of the ashes of your loved one. Although you may not always be able to visit as much as you like, as with the reef burial, you'll have the joy of knowing your loved one is exploring the space. Many rich people have advertised this new idea. For example, Star Trek's star James Doohan, and Mercury astronaut L. Gordan Cooper Jr's ashes were sent up into space the past April.
Overall, both burial alternatives draw mostly enviormentally conscious people. For instance, the Neptune Burial Reef is supposed to draw many varietities of tropical fish, and to promote coral growth. The space burial is said to abbreviate the afftect traditional burial services have on the Earth. Most importantly, it is said to give back the resources you use in your lifetime. The reasons I have just stated in my last paragraph, are the reasons I support these alternatives to the traditional burial services.
