The Memorial Page: Where Every Delivery Photo Lives, and How Families Use It

The photo that arrives after a delivery is the moment most families remember. The memorial page is where that photo goes to stay. It is a page for the grave itself, built from the first delivery and added to with every one after, so that a family scattered across the country has one place to see the grave tended over the years.

What is on it

• The name and dates on the headstone.
• The cemetery, with a link to its page and, where the family has given it, the Find a Grave memorial.
• Every delivery photo, newest first: the arrangement at the headstone, the day it was placed. Over a few years this becomes a record of the grave through the seasons.

Who can see it

The person who placed the order chooses. A memorial page can be public, so anyone with the link or anyone searching the name can find it, or private, visible only through the link the family shares. Public pages appear on the Memories index and on the cemetery's own page; private ones do not. The setting can be changed at any time.

How families use it

• The group chat. The delivery photo goes to the person who ordered; the memorial page link goes to everyone else. Siblings in four states see the same picture on the same day.
• The relative who cannot travel. A grandmother in a care home who will never make the trip to the cemetery can see the grave on a tablet, every season.
• The record. Families who have kept a plan for years have a page that shows the grave at Easter, at Christmas, on the birthday, year after year. It is often the only set of photos of the grave anyone has.
• Finding the grave again. The photos show the headstone and its surroundings, which is exactly what a relative visiting for the first time in a decade needs.

Alongside Find a Grave

Find a Grave records that a grave exists and where; the memorial page records that it is cared for. Many families link the two: the Find a Grave memorial in the BloomBridge page, and the BloomBridge page in the Find a Grave memorial's links. Our guide to creating a Find a Grave memorial covers the other side.
