Scattering Ashes in the Blue Sky
Posted by: | CommentsWhat is a Blue Sky Goodbye?
Blue Sky Goodbye is alternative to spreading ashes, owned and operated by myself, Angela Muhs and my partner, Matt Steinshouer. The passion we both feel and love that we have for sky diving is where our concept for Blue Sky Goodbye started. We truly believe that no greater freedom exists than the feeling of free falling though the sky. The wind in your hair, the sun warming your face, and a view so majestic, it is unlike anything you’ve ever seen. Away from the constraints of all things human, it is in the sky that you become one with the Earth. We were surprised to discover that the scattering of ashes via sky dive isn’t a service openly offered to the non-sky diving community. We believe that the scattering of ashes provides families with closure and a way to say a final goodbye. Scattering ashes via sky dive is a unique and magnificent way to do so.
Both Matt and I are experienced, licensed sky divers who are
passionate about what we do. We perform each ash dive with the utmost compassion and respect. The ashes are placed in a customized bag and are released at 11,000 feet, when we open the bag. The ashes create a magnificent plume that can sometimes even be seen from the ground. We record each ash dive with at least two cameras so friends and family are sure to be able to witness the scattering. This video can be compiled into a beautiful memorial tribute to the deceased.
We believe that death doesn’t have to be the end of an adventure, and
there is no better feeling than becoming one with the sky, and going
where ever the wind blows you. Thanks again for your interest!
