Why Scatter?Scattering is growing in popularity. Americans now choose more unique and personal ways to commemorate lost family and friends. Many now turn to scattering as the preferred method of saying goodbye.
The ritual of ash scattering allows families to prolong their goodbyes. Some may choose to leave a little ash behind each time they make a trip or perhaps empty an entire urn at one site of great meaning to the individual. In fact, many families and friends are making these meaningful journeys to fulfill the last wishes or last request of a loved one.
