It's taken me far too long to write this, but I think that speaks to just how meaningful this experience was -- I needed time to truly process it and find the right words. Working with Sundra at Aloha Ash Scattering in Maui was nothing short of extraordinary. During one of the most emotional and difficult times in our lives, she showed us a level of compassion, care, and attention that truly exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, everything was handled with such grace and intention. Communication was thoughtful, clear, and never rushed. Sundra took the time to understand our family, making the entire experience feel deeply personal rather than procedural. The ceremony itself was peaceful, beautiful, and incredibly moving enrapturing Hawaiian tradition. Being able to say goodbye in such a serene setting, surrounded by the ocean and the natural beauty of Maui, brought a sense of comfort and closure that is hard to put into words. It didn't feel transactional -- it felt sacred and tailored specifically to honor our Mom and Grandmother. What stood out most was the genuine care behind everything Sundra did. This is clearly more than just a service -- it's something she truly pours her heart into, and it shows in every detail. If you are considering Aloha Ash Scattering, I can say with complete sincerity that you will be in the best possible hands. She created a moment for our family that we will carry with us forever. Thank you, Aloha Ash Scattering, for honoring our loved one so beautifully. read more

Sundra is amazing -- warm, caring and thoughtful. She gave us as much time as we wanted to say goodbye to mom. The arrangement of the ashes and flowers on her board were beautiful. The photos she took were fabulous. She made us all feel welcome and shared some of her story of losing her husband. She helped make the day memorable and by the end of our little send-off she was part of the family. It was so much nicer, easier and more comfortable to do it on shore, than out on a boat. Mahalo, Sundra. read more

Sundra provided a wonderful service for my mom and all of her animals. Our family was very happy with the service. Her set up was lovely and all of the pictures she took were great. Now my mom is with the whales she loved so much. Pastor Allen did a wonderful blessing and I was so happy to have him there. The price of the service was very reasonable and I'm so happy that we were able to include all of her animals ashes as she had requested. Couldn't have ask for anything more. I highly recommend this service. read more

Sundra was everything and more! I feel like our mom guided us to finding her and Aloha Ash Scattering for mom's celebration of life. Not only was the set up beautiful, Sundra included the kids to help her with the flowers, so that they could be part of it. She spent time talking with us, looking at pictures of our beautiful mother, and getting to know why Maui was our mom's chosen resting spot. From the pictures we took, Sundra took, to the Aloha in the sand, my heart will forever be reminded of this beautiful day that Sundra helped us honor our mom and her last wish! Mahalo Sundra.

Sundra provided a beautiful and tasteful scattering ceremony with my mom's ashes. While my mom did not make it through Lahaina fires, I am absolutely certain that she would have wanted to been laid to rest in the ocean near where she lived for most of her life. The pictures are lovely and will give great comfort to the rest of our family. read more

Sundra and Kaleo of Aloha Ash Scattering gave my Brother a wonderful send off in Kihei, Maui. His ashes were scattered where my parents had been scattered years ago off of Kamaole II Beach. They show great respect, love and kindness throughout their dealings with you which was also reflected in the beautiful send off they gave my brother. Thank you for taking such good care of him and welcoming him to Maui! PS This is the second time I have trusted a loved one in their care. They handled my Mother's ash scattering in 2014 as well.

Sundra of Aloha Ash Scattering and Pastor Allen held a beautiful and touching paddle-out ash scattering for my niece. She passed away last year at 14 and this was a difficult and important send off for my family. Sundra is so very kind and is an absolutely great and organized communicator. She was easy to coordinate and plan with, including a last minute reschedule due to a canceled flight. During the ceremony both Sundra and Pastor Allen felt like they were part of our family and smiled, cried, and laughed with us as we remembered our sweet girl. Everyone used the word "perfect" to describe it. Sundra was also so cool with my 10 year old niece and let her help with arranging the flowers and even offered to let her try riding her surfboard. The beach that Sundra picked for the scattering was perfect. I look forward to visiting it the next time we're in Maui. The pictures and certificate that you receive after are beautiful. We couldn't have imagined better people to help us with this special time. It truly was perfect. Thank you so much, Sundra and Pastor Allen! We will be forever grateful to you. read more

I am so thankful to have found Aloha Ash Scattering. My brother had traveled to all 48 contiguous but had not made it to Hawaii or Alaska. I promised him, before he died, that I would be sure to get him to the last two states. Sundra, at Aloha Ash Scattering, was so kind and personable. She explained the process and promised to take care of my brother. That made it easier to mail his ashes from Indiana to Hawaii, knowing that someone was waiting for him. Sundra let me know a few days ahead of time when the service would be and then texted me a few minutes before it started. They placed the ashes in a beautiful container and paddle out away from the shore to scatter them in the water. They covered the water in hibiscus petals and gave him an island welcome. They emailed photos showing each step of the ceremony. I am at peace knowing that my brother was cared for and that I have kept my promise to him. read more

Maui was my sister's favorite place to visit and we had planned to go next Feb. to belatedly celebrate her milestone birthday. Sadly, she passed away before we could go. Aloha Ash Scattering performed a memorial service for our parents five years ago, so without hesitation, we called upon them once again. While the family was unable to attend, we felt it was important to celebrate our sister's life on what would have been her birthday. Kaleo and Sundra went out of their way to honor our special requests and documented the ceremony with beautiful photos. The "real time" text photo so that we were all able to "spirituality" attend the ceremony was an indescribable experience. Kaleo and Sundra have a true desire to meet the family's needs and to honor our loved ones. The respect they convey through constant contact with the family was sincerely appreciated. With sincere gratitude from our family to Aloha Ash Scattering. read more

Aloha Ash Scattering - Funeral Services & Cemeteries Near Me

We recently used the services of Aloha Ash Scattering to spread my husband's ashes off the coast of Maui. We had already done a memorial service back home and planned a gathering for our immediate family to say our final goodbyes on the one year anniversary in Hawaii, which was always a special place for my husband. The beach ceremony, led by Kaleo, was perfect. Kaleo & Sundra then paddled out and we could see the scattering and spreading of flowers in the sea from the beach (due to windy conditions, we decided it was best for the family, which included several elderly members, to stay on the beach). Sundra was warm & caring. She made everything very easy for us from start to finish. She took beautiful pictures of the event which we were able to share with family. We will always remember this special time & are so thankful for Kaleo and Sundra for providing this loving send-off for my husband. read more
