Woman planning her own funeral with 'cheapest coffin' says she'd 'go in a bin liner'

A woman has planned her own funeral so that her children won't have to deal with the stress of guessing what she would have wanted - and says she wants to be seen off with the least possible amount of fuss. Beverley Rose, 75, said she was "nothing if not a forward planner" and didn't want to leave anything to chance after her demise.

She has four children and, having organised her own parents' funerals, Beverley wanted to save them from the bother of it all - so she's laid out exactly what she wants to happen. First of all she'll be transported to the crematorium as cheaply as possible, cremated in a ceremony with few guests - then a big party will be hosted, at her expense, months later.
