I thought
this only happened when people died on a ship and for whatever reason the body
could not be sent back to the mainland or when a ship sank and there were no
survivors. However, a friend sent me a
link to www.eternalreef.com.
Interestingly, there is a company that will take cremains and craft the
ashes into a memorial reef. The
following is from their website: For
families and individuals that choose cremation, Eternal Reefs offers a unique
memorial choice that replaces cremation urns and ash scatterings with a
permanent environmental living legacy as a gift to the environment and
generations yet to come.
How
unique! And for someone who loves the water, this would make sense. I go back to my mantra- talk to your family
or whoever will be taking care of your wishes. Have the conversation. They are not mind
readers. And one thing can lead to
another so that all parties are on the same page after “The Conversation”. Talking about final wishes will also get ther
younger people thinking about their own wishes.
Non one is immune to becoming incapacitated or dying.
