Scattering of ashes

This morning the lifeboat crew took a family out to sea to scatter the ashes of their father/grandfather/great grandfather, who had spent years having fun on the water off Antibes, and wanted to be buried at sea. The youngest person aboard was a little boy aged six months.

The weather was clement, the ceremony short and dignified, and the whole event was curiously uplifting - I'm sure the family felt it too.
