Beyond Goodbye – Coping After the Loss of a Loved OneIn January 2011, Joshua Amos Harris Edmonds was killed in a road traffic accident in Vietnam. He was 22 and on the trip of a lifetime traveling across South East Asia.
His parents created Beyond Goodbye — a book, website, and film — as a place for family and friends to remember Josh, as well as a resource for others who are grieving a loss. Learn more about Beyond Goodbye here, and click the image below to watch the video.
From the filmmaker and father, Jimmy Edmonds:
”Part of our way of coming to terms with the death of our son, has been to talk and to share and to create a collective space in which Josh and his memory continue to resound – we, his family and his many friends all carry a little bit of him as we continue through life (see the viral candle lighting ritual at the end of the film), and I have learnt some BIG things from this.”

THis film is a creative inspiration to any artist mending wounds through art. The spaces and casket are exquisite. Josh had lovely parents to have created such a film as his tribute.
