WHY CHOOSE BURIAL AT SEA?

In recent years, burials at sea have grown more common, including among non-military families. This approach has several benefits and can make things easier for family and friends. Here are some of the benefits of a military sea burial such as:

• A Noble Conclusion - Burial at sea is a noble end for those who have served for years at sea. It is a significant gesture and an excellent method to recognize a person's career. While land funerals may undoubtedly be meaningful, there is something enigmatic and notable about the ocean. It can elevate the ritual to a higher level of significance. Its why many non-military families also opt for it.
  
  
• Closeness and Atmosphere - Those who have witnessed sea burials frequently comment on the ceremony's serene atmosphere and emotional intimacy. There will be fewer witnesses, primarily when conducted on a boat. The tranquil environment guarantees that family members may say a heartfelt farewell to their cherished ones.
  
  
• Uncomplicated Planning Process - It takes far less time to arrange a military funeral at sea than to plan a burial on land. This is mostly because there are fewer considerations, which can be a comfort for mourning families. You do not have to cope with a funeral home, a casket, food, transportation, and other arrangements of a similar kind. The short, uncomplicated burial at sea offers everyone concerned the necessary solace.
  
  
• Cost-Effective - It is impossible to place a price tag on the burial ceremony of a loved one. Therefore, most people prefer not to talk about money at this painful time. However, affordable services can alleviate the strain on the shoulders of a bereaved family. Sea burials are more cost-effective than land funerals, particularly with a non-profit organization like us handling the service. We use the money donated at these marine funerals to support military families. This is a double advantage, as you can have a lovely ceremony and help a family in need.
  
  
• The Honor Guard - This service consists of guards, a flag-folding ceremony, a 21-rifle volley, music, family readings, and the playing of taps. This ritual lends a dignified air to the burial and helps respect those who have served their nation.

We perform these services with respect and compassion at The Last Watch, ensuring that the event is memorable for all who attend. Choosing us for this crucial final farewell makes the event meaningful for everyone concerned.
