When you do choose cremation over burial, you'll have a
myriad of choices and decisions to make. Over 65% of the population in Nevada and California are now choosing
cremation. There are several different companies that provide ash scattering services, it is our belief
that ETERNAL
ASCENT is the best choice. You
will need to consider: Customizing Your Tribute, How Many Will Attend the Memorial, Cost, Availability,
Flexibility, Tone, Convenience, Affirmation of Choice, Simplicity, etc.
BELOW ARE THE COMPARISONS THAT SET US
APART:
| SINGLE-ENGINE PLANE |
Extremely limited location. Pilot must submit a flight plan.
Usually no memorial ceremony. No control nor input. Not much visibility. Cannot accompany in plane.
No closure for others. |
| REEF BALLS |
Very expensive. Limited to sea lovers. Not very inclusive, not
much of a closure. No input or control. |
| PRIVATELY- FUNDED ROCKET |
Very expensive. Limited to twice a year at most. Not exclusive,
sent up with several others. No control/no input. |
| NEPTUNE SOCIETY & OTHER BOAT CHARTERS |
This choice can be a very expensive. In California, the cost of
chartering a boat can be pricey. Usually, the cost of maintaining a boat is passed on to you. The
locations for scattering at sea are very limited. Trips out to sea need to be charted and are only
allowed to perform this type of ceremony in a particular area, not necessarily where you'd
prefer,(ie. favorite fishing loc.). You are extremely limited to the number of people you can
include, unless of of course, you can charter an ocean liner! Not everyone can withstand the motion
of the ocean and will be seasick. |
| FIREWORKS |
Very expensive. Not very peaceful. Not a lot of
closure. |
| DIAMOND JEWELRY |
Diamonds are never inexpensive. Not inclusive for others, no
shared memorial. Not a popular "last wish". |
| SCATTER ON YOUR OWN |
Most don't want to do it themselves. Limited to regulation. Not
very inclusive, nor memorial conducive. |
| KEEP IN URN AT HOME |
Not inclusive, limited closure for others. Only for one or two
people and usually not passed down to anyone else. |
| TAKING TO THE "OLD COUNTRY" FOR SERVICES |
Very expensive. Pay for all travel expenses. No control,
non-inclusive for others. No input at scattering site. |
Experience ETERNAL ASCENT has been providing this service for over 10 years.
Affordability has been key to our business, most other
services are extremely high in costs and you wind up paying for all of their expenses. The cost of funerals and
memorials range on an average of $5,000 to $20,000, at ETERNAL ASCENT, the cost is never over $2500.
Flexibility You are in charge. Remember, we come to you. You
can plan a memorial at home or by the sea, anywhere that our van can drive, we are happy to accommodate that
individual's "special place". Your ceremony can be solemn or celebratory. You can do this immediately after
cremation or much later. Our customers have even put both parents together after the last one has passed
on.
Closure While we can't guarantee closure, we can provide a
visual that will be sure to help you with the grieving process. When you see your loved one's ashes ascending up to
the heavens, you get a sense of closure, peace, and pride along with satisfaction that you've done the very best
for your loved one.
All Inclusive You can have as many attendees there or just a
small, meaningful private ceremony that boats, planes, and rockets can't offer.
Exclusivity ETERNAL ASCENT SOCIETY
holds the only patent in the U.S. to place cremains inside a biodegradable, helium-filled,
over 5ft in diameter latex globe. Once the cremains are inside, it is placed inside our patented inflation chamber.
We are very unique.
Environmentally Friendly Our globes are 100% biodegradable
and are closely monitored. When up over 35,000 feet the globe shatters into hundreds of pieces which more than
likely would disintegrate by the sun before landing on the earth's surface.
Customization 5 colors to choose from and can consider images
or names.
