We are a San Diego-based company providing burial at sea services.
On April 21, 1997, Ken's father died. His wish was to be cremated and his ashes spread upon the sea that he loved.
Ken relates, “The experience was so unlike a land burial, unlike any funeral I had ever experienced. There was no feeling of gloom. The ocean air and atmosphere gave the occasion an almost pleasant quality. I determined then to share this experience with others.”
This was the compelling reason for forming Ashes on the Sea, a small, caring company to help in your time of need; a company dedicated to excellence in service and with the highest integrity; a company that is truly interested in you!
We began in April of 1997
Our company is still a small, intimate one and we're dedicated to giving you the personal attention you need at this sensitive time in your life. Please feel free to call us any time.
We love our families
