View towards Mauna Loa when entering Hilo Bay
View towards Mauna Loa ( in the background), and Hilo downtown
in the front
We are about ready to scatter the ashes...
The ashes where scattered into the blue ocean accompanied by the
tropical flowers. From this spot in the ocean one can see the
beautiful Mauna Kea Mountain and the plume of the Volcano on a
clear day. In wintertime Mauna Kea can be snowcapped,
which is very beautiful.

I am Free
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I'm following the path that was laid, you see.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work , to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I found that peace at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh , a kiss,
Oh yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of
sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one's touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too
brief,
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts and peace to thee,
Remember me, but don't grieve for me,
for now I'm free..
