My Funky Funeral

So it appears that we may need to add an option to our funeral planning questionnaire. For those of you who feel that a traditional burial or cremation is simply not enough, Summum will mummify your remains for the bargain price of $67,000! According to this site “The finest must be permanent, enduring, and timeless“. So what better way to prove that you are the finest (perhaps right on par with a pharaoh?) than to be mummified and buried in a Mummiform cast inlaid with gold and jewels?

Upon death your body will be brought to the funeral home for a service, after which Summum will begin the mummification process (a timely task which takes around 90 days to complete). Your place of burial must be taken into careful consideration, as the temperature cannot drop below freezing (sorry my Canadian friends!) or rise above 22° C (72° F).

After much pondering on my part, I have decided that I would like to live out the rest of my life the way that these mummies get to spend eternity. Draped in gold and jewels and living in a part of the world that gets neither too hot or too cold!
