The Online Memorial

The online memorial

Light a candle. Touch the feather. Everyone who loved them is there.

Every Pachamama memorial piece opens a private online memorial when you hold your phone to it. Your family fills it with photos, letters, videos and their voice, from wherever they are.

What you receive

One piece for your home. One place for everyone's memories.

Most memorial gifts stay on a shelf. This one also opens a page where the whole family can keep remembering together.

The piece

Handcrafted in West Palm Beach, FL, with an engraved feather. A small chip inside it opens the memorial. It is something to touch, light and keep close.

The online memorial

Their photos, their story, their voice and letters from the people who miss them. Included with the piece, with no monthly fee.

How it works

Ready in about five minutes

1

Hold your phone to the feather

The memorial opens in your phone's browser. No app to download.

2

Add a name and a photo

A few words about their life are enough to begin. You can add more anytime.

3

Share one link

Family and friends open it from any phone or computer and add their own memories.

Tap to open works on iPhone XS or newer and most Android phones with NFC turned on. Anyone else opens the same memorial from the shared link.

What your family can keep

More than photos. The things you are afraid to lose.

  • Their voice. Record a voice message on the page or upload an audio file, up to 15 minutes.
  • Their photos. Up to 300, shown whole and never cropped, with a full-screen slideshow.
  • Videos. Upload straight from a phone, up to 3 minutes each and 20 minutes in total. YouTube and Vimeo links work too.
  • Their story. A biography, a life timeline, their favorite things and where they were born.
  • Their music. A Spotify or YouTube playlist, and friends can suggest songs.
  • Where they rest. Places on a map. Visitors see the general area; the exact spot is for family only.

Letters to them

For the things you never got to say

Anyone can write a letter to the person they miss, from a phone or a computer. It appears on letter paper, with gentle prompts to begin.

"Thank you for…" "I remember…" "I miss you when…"

Some letters are not meant to be read by anyone. Seal yours, and no one will ever read it. The text never leaves your device; only a closed envelope appears on the memorial.

Everyone, in one place

No account needed to add a memory

Family and friends only need their name. You approve what others share before it appears, or turn on auto-approve, or keep the memorial invite-only. You get an email when something new is waiting.

Anyone can light a virtual candle, leave a heart or a few words.
