Testimonials

We'd like to share with you some of the kind words and excerpts from letters that we've received from a few of our customers.

​

My dad loved the ocean and almost half of his life was connected with the sea. The farewell ceremony, flowers and rose petals gave us the opportunity to give peace and farewell to our dad's soul. The memories of this day will always be with us. Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to go out into the ocean on your immaculate white boat and sail smoothly to the place in the ocean to bury my father's ashes.

​

I want to thank Captain Joe DePalma on behalf of my sister, me and our mom. I want to thank you for the extraordinary experience we had on Sunday. For your help and organization of the farewell ceremony.
