"What is an on-line Memorial site?"

Memorial Matters’ on-line Memorial Websites are self-directed and self-contained, private places where the bereaved can build lasting memorials to their loved ones. This can be done by following a number of very easy steps which we explain clearly. Please click Create a Memorial if you would like to create your memorial now.

Memorial Matters offers a selection of 50 professionally designed templates that users are able to select from when constructing their Memorial to a loved one.

Once you have set up your Memorial site you will be able to incorporate on it photographs, text, scanned-in documents, and even include video links that you can share with your family and friends. They in their turn will also be able to "upload" content and in this way share their special memories of your loved one. We also offer the opportunity for you and your family and friends to place virtual flowers and candles, with soothing background music playing.
