Grave side services include ropes to lower down the coffin and shovels for mourners to move the dirt back over the eternal recycling rest bed

Corliss Lamont and Colonel Ingersoll authored wonderful eulogies mourners need only fill in the blanks with names and unique praises for the deceased

I would think there are a lot of rules to open your own cemetary. I will have to look into this.

@Hathacat in Iowa as most rural property families can bury people there after a physician signs the death certificate.....only if the cause of death is one of listed diseases can the body be buried without embalming.....of course if a "cemetery" wants to sell plots and markers there are laws for those businesses sales taxes property taxes zoning....I may be buried in IOWA'S ONLY INFIDEL CEMETERY located on the BEVAN FAMILY FARM the deed is recorded since the 1860's IN PERPETUITY a grave "for the unchurched"....Captain Elbridge Gerry Potter Atheist and Mason thus instituted this use of his family land....about 8 Atheists besides him are buried there alongside religious descendants and inlaws
