Anne Meara was cremated when she died 5 years ago. Now Jerry Stiller is dead. Will he be cremated as well? It is CHEAPER after all.?

Question

Meara was raised Catholic but said it was "dead to her".   She obviously never got over her mother's suicide so easy to understand that she would blame the catholic church.   So she converted to Judaism when she married Jerry.  But she was cremated; not exactly a Jewish tradition.  And they scattered her ashes.  Definitely against Jewish teachings.  How very odd.   Maybe Jerry will be pickled and put on display?

Orthodox Jews are buried in a wooden (not steel) coffin.  They usually have a rabbi officiating.  They do not allow cremation nor autopsies.  They would not approve of necrophilia (sex with the dead), in case Reverend Jimmy Swaggart comes by (or maybe hiring prostitutes is the limit of his prurient behavior).

It will be up to his family what will be done. The man is dead. Let him rest in peace, and let his family mourn.

I would rather be cremated my self and not leave my children with a big bill at some funeral place.
I would like my ashes to be burried right here in my back yard.

"Meara was raised Catholic but said it was "dead to her""
============================================
Some former catholics actually HATE the cult for all the CHILD RAPE it has done.
Who can blame them for having a conscience - and for leaving it?
