In 2024, our family faced two profound losses that changed our lives forever. Our beloved Mommy Gay passed away after a long battle with stroke. She was 77.  Shortly after, we lost Peter, our younger brother, to cancer at the age of 50. Both were cremated and given the memorial service they deserve. These two experiences made us realize how families need assistance during their most vulnerable moments. The death of a loved one is such an emotionally draining experience, and the added stress of handling memorial arrangements, documentation, coordination, and memorial planning can be too overwhelming.

This inspired us to put up Beyond Memorials Inc. (Beyond) – a company dedicated to help unburden grieving families by providing seamless, concierge type, bespoke memorial services. As borne by our own personal experiences, our goal is to ensure that the families can focus on healing and honoring their departed, without the added strain of logistical challenges.

Losing someone is extremely painful. You want to honor them and celebrate their lives in the best possible manner. But let’s face it – chances are you don’t know how. You leave the planning of their memorial to the funeral director as you grieve in the process. And most often, the memorial services given to you are the same as they were many years ago.

At Beyond, we reimagine memorials to celebrate your departed loved ones in the most personalised manner. We move away from traditional memorial services. We focus on creating memorable send-offs that honor the individual’s life. We embrace a modern and fresh approach to farewell ceremonies. We give you the freedom from traditional memorial norms and encourage creativity in planning the memorial for your loved ones. Because everyone deserves a grand finale.
