Well, to be logical about this, first off: will it be an interment or a cremation? You know, burned or buried (only one letter different).
Then you have the issues of denomination: that's a whole other can of worms and could affect the first point. For instance, if sikh, then, AIUI, it's a burning, no argument.
Then we have the wake - or, rather, do we have one or not?
It's all so complicated- but I'll be sure to look out for the little fella on the spirit plane, and, if I see him, I'll enquire as to his preferences - or her as the case may be - that is something which I don't believe was ever established.
