Choose Your MyEMemorial
What would you like to create?
MyEMemorial gives you two ways to preserve the story of a life.
Living MyEMemorial
For yourself or someone living
Preserve stories, memories, photos, family history, and experiences while the person can still help tell the story themselves.
Paid plans also include a Celebration of Life Presentation for use after the member has passed, so approved photos and videos can be shared at a funeral, memorial service, or Celebration of Life.
After independent death verification, an authorized Designated Person can handle permitted after-death updates without changing the life story you preserved.
Departed MyEMemorial
For Someone Who Has Passed
Preserve and share their life story
Bring together their stories, photos, videos, favorite music, family history, and meaningful memories in one lasting place. Paid plans also include a Celebration of Life Presentation for sharing approved photos and videos at a funeral or memorial service.
Family and friends can remember, contribute, and help preserve their story for future generations.
Built for families
Your story. Your memories. Your control.
Preserve the stories, memories, photos, videos, and family history that make a life unique — whether you are telling your own story or remembering someone who has passed.

Family and friends can contribute

The Story Behind MyEMemorial
More than fifty years ago, a seventh-grade boy standing in a cemetery found himself wondering about the people behind the weathered gravestones and asking:
"Who was this person?"
That question stayed with him throughout his life and eventually inspired the creation of MyEMemorial — a place where future generations can truly know and remember the people who came before them.
