Thanks to the Seattle Met Magazine for this profile. "While some corners of the country fantasize about outrunning death with technology and others cling tightly to inherited traditions, Seattle asks, 'How can we do death better?' The result has been practical, progressive, and influential enough that the rest of the US tends to follow us."

The city built an end-of-life industry that actually cares.

This week's The After Party FUN-raiser features this beautiful natural casket courtesy of Passages International, Inc . We'll be auctioning it off alongside our raffle baskets. Made from willow and seagrass lined with unbleached cotton, it's a great "green" burial choice. The winner can take it home (last year's winner uses hers for decor!) or elect to donate it to a family in need. Let's raise the bids for the cause this Thursday! 🎁
