Family tradition is donate your body to a med school. After the school...

is finished they cremate the remains and return them to the family.

Right now my Mom, wife and I have arrangements thru the Quillen School of Medicine (ETSU).

Dad was at ETSU, my sister was taken to Vanderbilt. My uncle and his wife were taken to UVA.
