Away from the hype and let go

Sitting on the mountain meadow in the grass, no wind, no noise, pure silence. This is how the Gruber family imagined the farewell of their beloved father. Hans was also a quiet person, he did not love the hype and years ago he also turned his back on the church. "A faith doesn't have to cost anything," he told his children, and he definitely didn't want to go to a cemetery. So Hans also meticulously recorded everything in writing in his burial decree.

And today is the day to say goodbye, just as Hans wished, far away from the hustle and bustle.

After a song sung together by Markus, who is a member of the local yodelling club, and the reading of a self-written poem by Yvonne, his wife, the ashes of each family member, one by one, were scattered to the wind. No photos, no geographical data recorded. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, simple and uncomplicated, that's how Hans wanted it.
