I was just discussing this with my folks the other day, actually. I wish to be recycled as much as possible. Anyone who needs a bit of me - kidney, cornea, skin, even hair for the balding, whatever - can have any such bit which is in good enough shape to be of use of them, and then whatever is left can go to a medical school or crime lab or any other place that might have a beneficial use for it. It's meat, I'll be dead, I won't care what happens to it, but someone else whose loved one needs a lung will have a deep emotional investment in where my lungs end up.
Better to die doing something useful than to be put into a box, really. (Though I suppose if I wound up as compost, that would be useful too.)
