Ashes At Sea On Oahu, Hawaii
Ho'oku'u (free) your beloved (mea aloha) in Hawaii.
Ho'oku'u mea aloha
We will perform a respectful memorial ceremony for your mea aloha (beloved).
on the gentle, tropical, waters of Hawaii.
A Parable of Immortality
by Henry Van Dyke
I am standing upon the seashore.
A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean.
She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch until at last she hangs like a speck of white cloud
just where the sea and the sky come to mingle with each other.
Then someone says, "There she goes!" Gone where?
Gone from my sight, that is all.
She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side
and just as able to bear her load of living freight to the place of destination.
Her diminished size is in me, not in her.
And just at the moment when someone at my side says, "There she goes"
there are other eyes watching her coming
and their voices ready to take up the glad shouts,
"Here she comes!"

Aloha Rev. Jerry,
The ceremony at sea for my beloved Mother was the perfect place for setting her free.
I am comforted to know that she is finally home among loved ones.
Mahalo for making a difficult journey for me one that I will always cherish.
Aloha, JoLynn
