No! There are zero recurring subscription fees associated with the Remembrance Key or memorial content services. The cost of maintaining the memorial website is factored into the price of the medallion. 

MyRemembrance has taken appropriate precautions to ensure the domain and website are active along with the medallion for generations to come.

Please be weary of companies offering bargain basement pricing for a similar medallion with QR code along with an associated memorial web page.  There are cheap solutions currently available that are not likely to be functional in five years.  A QR Code is only as good as the domain and website to which it is connected.  Buyer beware!

Yes!  You may select as many people as you would like to access the memorial site and contribute content to a given Digital Memorial.  As the Primary Account Owner, you will maintain sole discretion of what content is allowed to be posted on your memorial site. Each person that you designate will receive an email instructing them to register for free and establish a username and password for authentication.

  • Choosing a recessed or protected area on the marker, if possible
  • Checking with the cemetery to confirm placement guidelines
  • Considering other reinforcements if the surface is textured or if extra durability is needed

It is easy to use, simply scan the QR code that is displayed on the medallion using a smartphone or QR code scanner and you will be automatically directed to the Digital Memorial where you can view and share memories.

 

The 3½-inch Display Medallion comes with a hand-crafted wooden case that is perfectly suited for in-home display along with (or without) an urn. 

The QR Code on the Family Tree medallion connects directly to the designated Family Tree on the MyRemembrance website.  This medallion may be displayed

The 2-inch diameter Remembrance Key is designed to be permanently adhered to a gravestone or marker, while the 3½-inch diameter Remembrance Key comes in an elegant wooden case suitable for in-home display.  

The 2-inch Remembrance Key is permanently attached to a grave marker by peeling off the protective backing on the back of the medallion and holding and pressing the industrial-grade adhesive on the back of the medallion against the gravestone, following the appropriate cleaning of the surface where the adhesive will be applied.

The 2-inch Remembrance Key is designed to blend with the gravestone rather than detract from the stately appearance of the gravesite.  We believe that the round design highlighting the QR code provides the appropriate gateway for a digital memorial page.

The 3½-inch Remembrance Key includes the name of the deceased along with the years of birth and death.  The 3½-inch medallion is perfectly suited for in-home display when presented with the display box.  The 3 ½ inch Remembrance Key may also be adhered to the gravestone provided there is adequate surface space and that the size of the medallion is appropriately suited for the gravesite.

The 2-inch size is superior to larger-sized medallions for adhesion to flat grave markers.  The smaller surface area coupled with the industrial-grade adhesive provides a sufficient bond for most smooth and clean surfaces. However, with flat markers, especially those exposed to frequent landscaping or weather extremes, please exercise caution when installing by:

  • Choosing a recessed or protected area on the marker, if possible
  • Checking with the cemetery to confirm placement guidelines
  • Considering other reinforcements if the surface is textured or if extra durability is needed

An independent family tree medallion permanently marked with a QR code that is linked directly to an online family tree platform will be useful to those researching and sharing  family genealogy.  In contrast to the family tree accessible through the purchase of a Gravesite or Memorial Display Medallion, the Family Tree medallion QR code is linked directly to the featured family tree, as opposed to the memorial content of a family member.  Family members may choose to have duplicate medallions created so that they can place at the gravesite of family members from previous generations.  This provides the opportunity for families to stay connected to the gravesites of family members that might otherwise be forgotten as the generations pass.
