According to the NFDA’s 2023 Consumer Awareness and Preferences Report, over 53% of respondents have attended a funeral at a non-traditional location, signaling a significant shift in how we honor our loved ones. This trend underscores a growing desire for personalized, meaningful ceremonies that reflect the unique lives of the departed. At Passages International, we recognize the importance of accommodating these changing preferences. Non-traditional funerals can take place anywhere from mountain trails and forests to more personal settings like family homes or scenic overlooks, allowing for a deeper connection and a more intimate goodbye ✨ As funeral professionals, it's crucial to offer flexible options that respect these wishes. Providing the means for non-traditional ceremonies not only serves families better but also aligns with the increasing demand for personalized end-of-life services. Let's continue to support families by embracing and facilitating their choice for non-traditional funerals, ensuring each service is as unique as the life it honors 🌿 #NonTraditionalFunerals #FuneralIndustry #EndOfLife #NFDA #InnovationInMourning #PassagesInternational #TheNaturalChoice #DeathCare #DeathPositive #GreenFunerals

Aquamation, or alkaline hydrolysis, offers a gentle, eco-friendly alternative to traditional flame cremation, returning 20-30% more cremated remains. This method uses water and alkali to accelerate natural decomposition, preserving more bone structure than flame cremation, which often vaporizes significant bone matter due to intense heat. Why is receiving more cremated remains beneficial? It allows families the option to divide the remains among members, providing a way for everyone to participate in the memorial process. Our scattering tube kits make it easy for families to distribute a loved one’s remains and scatter them across multiple meaningful locations, enhancing the healing experience 💚 Choose Aquamation to honor your loved one with care for the planet and a fuller return of remains, ensuring a lasting legacy across cherished sites 🌿 #Aquamation #AlkalineHydrolysis #PassagesInternational #TheNaturalChoice #DeathCare #DeathPositive #EcoFriendly #Sustainability
