Would you make pencils from Grandma?

According to this post at Mark Ecko's blog, designer Nadine Jarvis is working on a project that turns the cremated remains of your loved one into a large set of pencils (240).  You get one pencil at a time and sharpen the pencils into the container so that you keep some semblance of "ashes" to keep once it's all done.
 Your loved one's name  is stamped into the side of each pencil along with the start and end dates that you'd see on a headstone.

Here's the original post http://www.beingmarcecko.com/blog/2008/11/10/carbon-copy-rip.html

So what do you think, creepy or cool?

I just want to make sure I'm made into a nice 4B...
