For memorials and celebrations of life
Gather the stories, so they are never lost.
Family and friends each share a memory, a photograph or a few words. We set them together in a quiet, beautiful keepsake, online for those far away and printed for those who want to hold it.

How it works
-
Begin the remembrance
Add their name and the date of the service or gathering. Choose an online keepsake, printed copies, or both.
-
Invite family and friends
Share one link with everyone, or send personal invitations. There is no deadline pressure; people can add memories whenever they are ready.
-
Share memories
Stories, photographs, favourite sayings, letters. Anything can be kept private until you choose to share the keepsake.
-
Share the keepsake
Share it at the service or gathering, online for those who could not be there, and in print for those who want something to keep.
Five ways to file a story
Remembrance
A longer piece. Who they were to you, and the moments you carry.
Photographs
A photograph that holds a memory, with a few words about it.
A Short Memory
A few lines. A phrase they always said, a moment that comes back to you.
Things We Carry
Lessons, habits, favourite sayings. One per line.
Conversation
Start lines with Q and A. Share a conversation you had, or one you wish you had.

Questions
Who can see the memories?
Only the people you invite, unless you decide to make the keepsake public. You can keep pieces private until you are ready to share them.
Is there a deadline?
You set the date. Many families share the keepsake at the service, and keep it open afterwards for memories that come later.
Does everyone need to be good with technology?
No. There are no passwords; contributors receive a link by email. You can also add memories on someone's behalf.
Can we print copies for the family?
Yes. Each person in your package receives a printed copy, and extra copies are $14 each, less for larger orders. They can be shipped to one address or directly to each person. A human editor lays out every printed edition.
How long does the online keepsake stay available?
Twelve months, then $19 a year if you wish to keep it. A print-only keepsake is archived after twelve months and can be restored for a year for $19. Nothing is ever deleted.
What if we write more than fits?
Each person's place includes up to 2 pages. If there are more memories than that, we let you know before layout. You can choose what to keep, or add pages one 4-page sheet at a time. Nothing is printed until you are ready.
Can others contribute to the cost?
Yes. You can share a link so that family and friends can contribute any amount toward the package, and what is given is taken off what you pay.
