Janice Bowe Last Remains As many of you know my mother being a born-again Christian like myself did not want to funeral, nor did she want to be buried. Basically, we as believers feel our bodies are nothing more than a shell or a temporary vehicle for our souls, therefore she wished to be cremated. As for her last remains, in the spring her ashes will be placed in the ground with our living Christmas tree from this year. When my father George died in 2003 we purchased a living Christmas tree that year in his honor and then place his ashes in the ground with that tree so that his ashes could become part of the tree so to speak. A few years later we had the unfortunate task to do the same thing when we lost our beloved Scottie Piper, this time we planted Piper's the tree next to George tree who was already growing very tall in our yard! This spring my mother's ashes will be added to this year's live Christmas tree directly next to Piper's and my father George's tree, both of which are huge now! This way all of their remains can be somewhat together and every time we look out into the front yard we can be reminded of them and be happy in the knowledge that they are now clothed in eternal garments of Christ! The Nativity you see in the photos under the tree was built by my mother and father. My father put together the background, the figurines I believe were purchased but painted by my mother and of course the background was painted by my mother as well. When I was looking for decorations to do the tree I happened upon this in pieces, as I haven't seen it in many years. I took the time and rebuilt it and set it up thinking it was only fitting that it be on display! |
