Zane would have turned 19 on July 17. To celebrate his life, we are going to the beach on the 16th to have some donuts, spread some of his ashes into the sea, and remember the love and happiness that he brought into our lives. If the winds allow, we will be sending some candle lit, eco-friendly lanterns into the ocean.
Zane would not have wanted this to be a big production. I thought originally to ask everyone to send off a balloon in his honor. But that's not good for the environment. So perhaps the better thing would be to have a donut in his honor. And post a picture to our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/shinelikethesunzane/ He would get a kick out of that. And that makes me smile.
