On 1 July 2016 our family gathered on board the sailing vessel My Sunshine to disperse her ashes off shore of Honolulu. We treated the ashes one more time. Erin, Jean's daughter scattered the ashes while others threw flower petals. Nancy Berry on board the Hokulea sent a Reiki treatment while sailing on east coast of Martha's Vineyard. A group on shore also paid tribute.
