How to support the grieving:
- Ask them for stories.
- Send a handwritten note with a special memory or words of encouragement.
- Help them make decisions.
- Don’t talk about the future or try to fix how they’re feeling.
- Anticipate their needs. Don’t wait for them to call and ask for help, because they probably won’t.
- Be consistent – keep showing up even after the initial period of grieving. Not everything will be the right thing to say at the right time, but being present will be a great comfort.

Most airlines allow cremated remains on board as carry-on or checked baggage, but the container holding the remains must pass through the x-ray machine or it will not be allowed through security. Cremated remains can also be air-shipped as cargo but only by "known shippers." In addition, to transport remains on an airplane you must provide a death or cremation certificate for the cremated remains in order to carry them on board.
