Did some paint work on this dragster...

And a mutual friend of the crew and owner had passed away

He was a Street Rod buildah with a mad skill set.

Anyways ..after his passing he was cremated....and to give him what he wanted in his will

....some of his ashes were packed in each parachute.

And at the end of the 201 mph run ...Ronnie got his wish !!!


Let's hear some of your stories

Nice, lol

My inlaws wanted their ashes co mingled and dumped on some mountain in southern Arizona, it was my sister in laws job to get it done but she cheaped out, instead she had her husband divide the ashes 3 ways so every child could get a piece of them and dispose of the ashes in their garden or whatever....Well, my inlaws always treated my wife poorly, they were arrogant, nasty people, so my wife gets her share and now wonders what we should do with them as she didn't want them on the property.....now my inlaws hated the beach, and water.....so I might have brought them out in the bay and sent them on a voyage.....

I figured their wishes were already compromised, so no harm done...trust me they deserved worse....

Right now she is sitting on a the entertainment center in the living room in an urn she had made by her favorite potter.

when the kids no longer want her ashes here or I also have passed and been cremated , they have a fishing trip to take us on.

My mom is spread along the Blue Ridge Parkway.. Put my blue heeler there with her a few years later.

Very nice Charles. A very beautiful place. Eric

Have had a few friends ashes spread out of float planes on favorite lakes in Canada.

At four corners, which is on the Navajo reservation, there's a big sign saying no spreading of human remains.

Yeah, most government land has rules about spreading cremations but I doubt many people actually follow them. The chances of getting caught spreading ashes is pretty much close to zero, if you put any thought into it.

A sad story, in my view at least, is one of the guys I used to work with, when he was still married to his first wife (if the second one is actually a wife yet or not), was that he helped his first spread her folks ashes down in some cactus country in southern Arizona. I don't know if they GPS'ed the locations or not, I hope the first wife did because he dumped her about two years after he dumped her parents' ashes (in multiple locations).
