Closure or need for closure is a popular psychology term used to describe an individual's desire for a definite cognitive closure as opposed to enduring ambiguity. It is a need usually provoked after experiencing an emotional conclusion to a traumatic life event, such as the breakdown of a close interpersonal relationship or the death of loved one: definition from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closure_(psychology).

It’s about being able to recover their loved ones as quickly as possible and to do that with dignity. If we can do that it will hopefully be a step towards closure for them at what is a very difficult time.”
