Colorado Remembers Victims of Colorado's Death Care Industry

A Testament to Resilience Compassion, And the Enduring Spirit
Colorado Remembers
Our Why
The Colorado Death Industry has victimized thousands of people...
800+ Sunset Mesa victims whose bodies were dismembered and sold without permission or knowledge of the families.
190 Return to Nature victims left to decompose in their funeral home without disposition, and 948
still missing with no answers as to where their loved ones are or how their bodies were handled.
30+ Apollo Funeral and Cremation victims whose cremated remains were never returned to their families and 1 woman left unattended for 18 months in the back of a hearse.
1000s more...
Colorado is currently the only state in the country that does not regulate mortuaries and crematories. There has been recent legislation to change that, but it will be a slow process.
With this memorial, we will create a permanent monument to our victims and reminder to our communities as to why we're still fighting.
COMMUNITY SUPPORT IS IMPORTANT!

If your loved one has been a victim, please reach out to us so that we may honor your family and include you in our project.
The project will call for a significant amount of money as well as completion of various tasks. It will take a village to make this happen.
