We are delighted to stock some of the late Peter Accadiaโ€™s ceramic urns here at The Last Hurrah. โฃ
โฃ
Each of these had thrown urns is a piece of art; unique, polished yet organic, brutal and also soft. โฃ
โฃ
We had great honour of caring for Peter in his final rite of passage, so these pieces hold a special place in our hearts.โฃ

We recently assisted a Japanese family to have a version of the traditional Japanese Kotsuage ceremony, and we were struck by the immediacy and deeply moving reality of this experience.โฃ
โฃ
Although it wasnโ€™t possible to have exactly the same rendering of the ceremony as in Japan - our cremators are very different and here less full bones are left; they also come out more jumbled up due to the machines - even so, we worked closely with the team at GMCT to try and meet the wishes of the family to find the hyoid bone - which is very precious because itโ€™s the bone that is linked to a personโ€™s voice and speech.โฃ
โฃ
This process of sorting bones and gathering some up to be kept is both beautiful and wrenching. Through this act we really understand what โ€˜ashesโ€™ are. We must confront the depth of loss and also that we are here with the relics of our person.โฃ
โฃ
It made us think that perhaps this ceremony is not cultural so much as it could be universal. It is a deeply human experience.โฃ
โฃ
So we would like you to know we can offer this to you should you need or want this, and can tailor it to what feels right.โฃ
โฃ
As Kimba is also deeply connected to Japanese culture and language, we are soon going to have an offering for Japanese families beginning with a page explaining our offerings in Japanese. Kimba can also offer small sections of ceremony in Japanese and we have a livestream service with Japanese subtitling.โฃ
