Family and friends are asked to bring a rock,which will be collect and build a small cairn.In their yard.The ashes we be thrown along the Merrimack River This is where he done most of his sailing.

I had wondered about the rocks too. Well it's a nice idea to build that cairn in his memory.

That is a lovely idea to create a memorial for your friend. I think the word is Scottish. There is a dog breed 'the Cairn terrier' which is Scottish.
