Background

Memorial Matters Inc. launched http://memorialmatters.com as a public Software as a Service (Saas) platform. As people started posting pets on the site we realized there is a need for a separate site for pet memorial, then launched http://memorialpets.com.

In partnership with Giant Step, a digital agency, we are deploying custom implementations of the platform for companies in the funeral industry.
