Burial at Sea – Ash Scattering – Videos

The collection of burial at sea videos below will help you better understand the ash scattering at sea – burial at sea – process and some of the options which are available.

On this ash scattering a musician played taps on the bugle since the person being laid to rest had a military background. On other occasions, it has been the bagpipes playing amazing Grace.
