Don Ho's ashes will be scattered off the beach of Waikiki on Saturday, May 5. A sundown ceremony is planned, with many singers and dancers performing. The outrigger that will carry Don's ashes to the sea will be adorned with a 76 foot long lei - one foot for each year of his life. That outrigger will be accompanied by 50 to 70 other canoes.

A crowd of 25,000 is expected for the service, and local television stations plan on providing live coverage of the entire memorial service and concert.
