I think I will join my brother if it is OK with my wife. I think my kids will be OK with that.

I know a man who distributed his wife’s ashes to the winds from a high point in a national park. To me it is only an issue if it is obvious and offensive to others.

Качает!…

Where should you request your remains to be left? This is a difficult question as it has both legal and moral implications…..

My brother died in 2000, aged 68 and wished for his ashes to be spread on a Sydney beach. Given the texture of ashes, that was not possible without offence to others, so with his partner’s consent, he now resides in a dam at the back of my home. I trust he is assisting in the regeneration of the local water birds.

I say this with no sense of facile humour, but a true belief that this is what nature is all about – in the end, the world is its own recycler.

I wish I had met Jessica during her life. She would have been a joy and an education to know.

What a trully beautiful thing to do.
If only those things that had the masses approval were done we would be in a very different world than we are now.
A bleaker one too I imagine.
I really am no expert on human remains ,I still remain using mine at the moment and hope they will one day be dispersed with love, joy ,and a sense of adventure.
What a way to honour Jessica.
I think that having been placed with love that is the only way they could be found.
Maybe by now some local animal may have rolled his thickly furred body on them and they together are running, galloping or hopping accross some wilde pastures.
Blessed be and in peace she is free.
