This ceremony can only take place in the short period when the physical body is still present - a one-time opportunity that never returns. The bereaved deserve to know this option exists for a conscious, personal farewell that benefits their grief process. Help them by offering The Passage as a complement to traditional funerals. I created The Passage from my own experience with loss - insufficient attention is paid to what the bereaved truly need in these crucial days. It's time to change this.
