My grandparents thought it was a racket, too (and I agree). They made sure Mama A, my uncle, and I all knew that they wanted to be cremated and have their ashes scattered in the ocean.
Mama A had a Neptune Society membership for years before she got sick, and that prepaid everything unless we'd wanted a fancy urn (but given that she wanted her ashes scattered at Mt. Shasta an urn would have been silly).
I'd like to be buried here at home, but P doesn't think he'll keep the place after I'm gone, so...
