I am having my body donated to science.

My wife had her father's body donated to science. It cost $200, and several months later she got an urn of her father's ashes by mail.

We then rented a boat and spread his ashes in his favorite harbor. It turned out to be a solemn and yet mildly joyful occasion as each person talked about fond memories and spread some ashes in the water.

I want students to cut my corpse up and learn things. I want my body to contribute to society for a little while longer after I am gone.
