The Cremains: Hmmmm, let's try to explain them:
Some old fella used to go fishin' there all the time.
He died.
His widow knows he asked to have his ashes spread at his favorite fishin' hole.
Early in the morning, her and a couple of the kids head out for the reservoir.
Strange....... lots of activity here this morning......oh well.....doesn't concern us.
Let's go up to the edge of the water, say a prayer, and pour granddad in.
"Hello officer, is there a problem ?"
-------------------------------------------
The end of this story would be when law enforcement explains to them that they are in the middle of a search area for a missing toddler, at which point they interview them and find out about grandad, who died last week.
LE takes their name and information and sends them on their way.....but the ashes were already put in the water........their memorial service will have to wait.
LE issues a statement saying "someone" was over their spreading cremains in the water, and it's messin' with the cadaver dogs. They didn't bother saying who this "someone" was, but they know, and chances are good she was about 80 years old and had blue hair. This is someone who was simply fulfilling a final wish, otherwise they would be in the back of a squad car in handcuffs.
Not everything has to be complicated.
IMO
