What to do with a used URN....no joke!
Our friend passed a couple years ago. His ashes were in a plastic bag inside the Urn! Only used once! Can we donate it? Where and to? Should we just destroy it?
TIA.....Jim W

It is a poem by John Keats. It should be required reading before the "Final Exam!

From the last verse of "Ode on a Grecian Urn" by Keats:
When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,
"Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."
When old age shall this generation waste,
Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe
Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,
"Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all
Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."

When Nathan Radlich's house was burgled, thieves left his TV, his VCR, and even left his watch.
What they did take was "generic white cardboard box filled with greyish-white powder." (That at least is the way the police described it.)
A spokesman for the Fort Lauderdale police said "that it looked similar to cocaine and they'd probably thought they'd hit the big time."
Then Nathan stood in front of the TV cameras and pleaded with the burglars: "Please return the cremated remains of my sister, Gertrude. She died three years ago."
Well, the next morning, the bullet-riddled corpse of a drug dealer known as Hoochie Pevens was found on Nathan's doorstep.
The cardboard box was there too; about half of Gertrude's ashes remained.
There was this note. It said:
"Hoochie sold us the bogus blow, so we wasted Hoochie.
Sorry we snorted your sister.
No hard feelings.
Have a nice day."
