About Us

SacredFlight is a not-for-profit organization of certified music-thanatologists, offering the prescriptive qualities of live music with harp and voice at the bedside of people who are terminally ill and dying. We serve patients in hospitals, hospices, nursing homes, and private residences in the greater Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington area. We are also available for educational presentations to community groups and healthcare organizations.

Institutions that provide SacredFlight music-thanatology vigils for their patients:

The mission of SacredFlight is:

To lovingly serve the physical and spiritual needs of people nearing the end of life with the prescriptive delivery of music.

To expand and develop the field of music-thanatology through the education and training of future music-thanatologists.

To expand cultural perceptions so that death and dying can be seen and experienced as a meaningful transition within the circle of life.

To offer an environment of beauty, peace, and reverence, which can support transformation through the reorganizing power of music.
