Podcast Episode 45 - Honouring a Final Wish: A Sea Burial Story
Today I am joined on the podcast by Simon and Sameiko from Candour Funerals - a Melbourne-based funeral company. Together, we have a wonderful chat about something very special and deeply meaningful; the first sea burial to take place in Victoria in over a decade.
In this episode, we have a wonderful chat about the practicalities and logistics of making it happen, but more importantly, we hear about the deep respect shown to honour one person's final wish to be laid to rest at sea. It was a true community effort - a coming together of family, funeral professionals and authorities to ensure everything unfolded with care and dignity.
It's a conversation about respect, dignity and going to great lengths to ensure a farewell that felt right for the family and their loved one.
So, grab a cuppa and settle in for a truly remarkable story.
