Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

Is it a sin to separate ashes? No, it is not a sin to separate ashes. The Bible does not specifically mention cremation or the scattering of ashes, so there is no ruling on this matter. However, some people may have religious or spiritual beliefs that say cremation and the scattering of ashes are not acceptable.
Cremated remains are mostly dry calcium phosphates with some minor minerals, such as salts of sodium and potassium. Sulfur and most carbon are driven off as oxidized gases during the process, although about 14% of carbon remains as carbonate.
Put simply, the repatriation of ashes or cremated remains is the process of transporting the ashes of a deceased person to another country. We understand that the sending ashes overseas is not common knowledge, so we thought we would cover some FAQs: Is taking ashes on a plane allowed? YES.
Scattering Ashes Casting: Simple scattering of ashes into the wind, often performed at a meaningful location. Trenching: Digging a shallow trench in the earth, pouring the ashes into the trench, and then covering them again. Raking: Spreading the ashes on the soil and then mixing them into the ground with a rake.
