NS whitetail Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 My Uncle Gary has been living out in Edmonton for the last 5 years, he passed away on Feb. 20th from complications with diabetes at 55 years of age. He wanted to be cremated, and his ashes were send home. Last Sunday, family and friends had a celebration of life ceremony for him. Today, myself and two of his very close friends fulfilled his last wishes. We took his ashes out in an outboard boat and spread them here off of Cape Sable Island into the sea where he and his best friend Ricky ( was with me today ) always went seaduck hunting. It was a beautiful day today, there were lots of ducks and geese flying around which made it even more fulfilling. We said a prayer and bid our farewells to a great man as we let his ashes go into the sea. R.I.P. Uncle Gary ... you are loved and will be missed by many.
