Why launch only a symbolic portion?

We offer the launch of a symbolic portion of the cremated remains as a memorial service, not final disposition of all the remains, because although dramatic progress is being made by entrepreneurs in reducing launch costs, spaceflight is still quite expensive. By launching a portion we can offer an affordable service, and also can provide performance assurance. We will arrange for final disposition of the balance of the cremated remains through a sea scattering service, should you so desire.
