Sarasota Bay Parrot Heads assist SBPH Norma Garber in casting and deploying SBPH Steve Garber’s Eternal Reef Ball. On January 28th, 2005, SBPH members joined with Norma Garber to cast an Eternal Reef Ball from the ashes of SBPH Steve Garber. Steve passed away on December 24th, 2004. It was his wish that his ashes be deposited in the Bay and Gulf where he loved to fish and boat. The casting process took place on Central Street in Sarasota. Special molding forms are used to create the actual reef balls. Steve’s ashes were mixed in with the cement that forms the final reef ball. Each individual had their own reef ball.
