My Grammy always said this. Put me in a cardboard box, and send me on my way.
It’s a little funny that she wanted to be cremated but my papa wanted a wake and funeral for her first, so he bought a (beautiful) basically covered cardboard (maybe like particle board in there, too?) casket that she would then be burned in.
I know she was laughing.
