"The Happiest Cemetery on Earth". And the weird part is, knowing Disney's voracious appetite for making money, I am NOT kidding!

If you want a connection to DL, just put "I'm going to Disneyland!" on your tombstone. Just don't actually put your ashes there so I have to experience them

Originally Posted By jonvn I believe the law in California is that cemeteries are only required to maintain your grave until 99 years after the last person is buried in the place.

In 99 years, the graves can all be dug up, and reused all over again. Not that they would, in that you supposedly pay an endowment fee for "perpetual care," but that is something that can happen, if the fund runs out of money or some other thing.
