I don't find it sad but your tradition sounds nice too. In the US, like most everything else, there are way too many rules and regulations and official processes around the simple, human experience of death.

I'm in the US—Tennessee, specifically. There are far fewer rules than you might think. Most of the rules that do exist apply only to funeral homes.
If you want to be buried on your land, for example, you have to check with the county office to make sure you're not going to leach corpse juice into a water table, and so that future people know not to build on your grave. That's it.
