When saying goodbye to a loved one, traditional burial or inurnment isn’t the only option. More families are turning to aerial ash scattering for a symbolic, spiritual, and unforgettable farewell.
A Return to the Sky
The idea of returning to the sky resonates with many. Whether your loved one was a pilot, traveler, skydiver, or simply admired open skies, an airborne ceremony feels like a true final journey.
A Unique and Personal Tribute
Unlike traditional services, ash scattering from an aircraft creates a deeply personalized memorial. You choose the location—whether it’s a favorite lake, a scenic valley, or just somewhere peaceful and quiet.
Every ceremony we offer at Aerial Ash Scattering is tailored. Some want music played from the aircraft, others request a specific time of day, or coordinate it with family gathered on the ground.
Environmentally Friendly
Aerial scattering leaves no trace. There's no headstone or urn—just a natural return to the elements.
Spiritual and Symbolic
Cultures around the world associate the sky with transcendence. Letting ashes drift into the wind offers symbolic closure and a sense that the soul has been set free.
It’s Also Practical
For families spread across the country, a centralized scattering can bring everyone together for a shared, simple experience without the stress or expense of a funeral home.
Final Word
This isn’t just a scattering—it’s a ceremony. It’s a powerful way to say, “You’re free now.” A final flight, and a lasting memory.
