Burial Costs




RTÉ - Liveline show

Summary: Both Margery's parents and her aunt donated their bodies to science in University College Dublin. They had a (nearly) normal funeral service, just without the body. She tells Joe about the process. Ger's family think she is mad because she wants them to get a shared wicker basket to keep all their ashes in together. She wants to make it a family tradition, an heirloom that is handed down through the generations. Inge is Danish but has lived in Ireland for many years. She tells Joe how much cheaper funerals are in Denmark, despite the similar cost of living to her.
