We stayed over in Sarasota at my dad’s house after our mom’s viewing and had some yummy food at a restaurant (Ash was overwhelmed by a waffle!) and then they spent some time swimming and we even got to play Cards Against Humanity (family edition).
My mother’s ashes were committed to the Eternal Reefs project. My family attended the casting where we put her ashes into a solution to make a “pearl” and also decorated the collar of the reef ball.

Afterwards, we went to a restaurant and hung out with our dad.
