520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "On December 6, 1876, in the tiny village of Washington, Pennsylvania, an Austrian-born immigrant named Baron Joseph Henry Louis Charles De Palm became the first recipient of what is described as the first cremation in modern America....How things have changed between that time and the recent spreading of the ashes of rock idol Jerry Garcia on the waters of the Ganges River. From its inauspicious and controversial beginnings, the practice of cremation in America has grown into, for the most part, a perfectly acceptable, barely controversial, religiously sanctioned method of disposing of human bodies." (CHRISTIAN CENTURY) This article traces the history of cremation from its roots in 1876, Pennsylvania, to present day, where it "is often heralded as an environmentally sensitive act of good stewardship and an enlightened alternative to burial.".
