Thirty
years ago, V.M.P.conceptualized the Quiet Remembrance
pendant as a way of honoring his brother’s life
and healing his broken heart. In 1999, V.M.P. and Margaret
Goff formed the Quiet Remembrance non-profit organization
to help others who also experienced loss. Since then they
sent out thousands of Quiet Remembrance pendants accompanied
by his personal letters as a way of spiritually comforting
those in need.
“It
is my sincere hope that your Quiet Remembrance
Pendant will somehow ease your pain, as it is a symbol
of your
attachment to the spirit of a loved
one for all
eternity.”
-V.M.P.

Values
Quiet

final profit from its success, but recommits
all

engagement and impact in larger more meaningful
manners, and in bringing its impact to those of lesser
financial
means. In accomplishing this, we are
guided by the following values:

not a religious based organization, but does approach
its mission based on a core belief in
the spirituality
of the human
experience.

Remembrance does
not seek to be understood as a fad, a fashion or
a statement
of exclusivity – it desires to be interpreted
as the timeless expression of love and caring
one person feels eternally
for another.
Connecting – A
Quiet
Remembrance pendant
is a personal means of expression communicating in
a simple, non-boastful manner allowing
others
with
similar experiences,
feelings and sensitivities to connect and
create a supportive network of caring,
Private – The
Quiet
Remembrance organization
recognizes its solemn responsibilities and
pledges to provide its service to clients
in an atmosphere that respects a person’s
desire for confidentiality and is sensitive to
their feeling
of loss.
