Hi, guys —
I have my mother’s cremains and just got an urn. All her ashes did not fit in the urn.
I took the remaining ashes and sprinkled them on my mother’s, the baby she lost, and my father's grave.

Elizabeth —
I encourage you to sit down with your priest and discuss the question with him, he's the best person to guide you. This question is hard for us as lay people to answer over the Internet as there are various factors involved.

It is good that you exist. You are worth more in the eyes of God than the entire cosmos..

Dear Elizabeth,
It's important that you speak with your priest about this. The cremated remains of loved ones, like non-cremated corpses, must be buried in a dignified fashion.
