Final Disposition of Remains:
After use in our teaching program, from one to three years or possibly longer, the bodies
are individually cremated & the cremated remains are buried in the University burial plot
in East Lawn Memory Gardens in Okemos, MI.
&
Each September the Division of Human Anatomy conducts an interment service for those individuals who have been cremated that year. Family members who choose to be notified
of this service are invited to attend. The family may request return of the ashes for private burial. However, the family is responsible for making private burial arrangements and for
the costs associated with the private burial. Although a common grave site is used each year, the cremated remains are buried in individual urns.
