The South Lake Chamber of Commerce welcomed Gentle Goodbyes Pet Aquamation to the business community at a ribbon cutting this week. Gentle Goodbyes is located at 1504 Max Hooks Road, Suite B, Groveland.

The new business offers Eco-Friendly, Water-Based Alternative to flame cremation for pets. Local business Gentle Goodbyes Pet Aquamation Inc. announces a water-based alternative to flame cremation for pets. Aquamation is 100% eco-friendly and the ash remains are 100% safe, pathogen and disease free.

The Aquamation process uses gentle water flow, temperature and alkalinity to accelerate the ecosystem’s natural method of breaking down and decomposing organic matter. A process that would take nature months or years is reduced to just 24 hours. During that time, a combination of 95% warm water and 5% alkali salts gently flow over the pet’s body. At the end of the Aquamation process, the pet’s physical components have been returned to their natural elements, dispersed in water with only the solid bone, free of disease and pathogens, remaining. The ash that is returned is simply bone mineral, or calcium phosphate and can keep in an urn or may be buried or scattered in a special place.

Wayne Wagner and Janno Mumm are the owners of Gentle Goodbyes. Wayne and Janno have recently retired from the Lake County Sheriff’s Office after several years in the Corrections Department. Together they opened the company to help the community, environment and animals in Lake and Orange County. One promise they have made is to make sure all active or retired K9 Officers are taken care of at no cost. Gentle Goodbyes has the second aquamation machine in the state of Florida.
