About the Business
Memorial Merits is a comprehensive end-of-life planning platform built to help individuals and families plan ahead with clarity, preserve what matters most, and navigate grief without feeling lost or alone.Founded after a firsthand experience with the chaos that follows an unexpected loss, Memorial Merits was designed from the ground up to solve three of the most overlooked gaps in end-of-life care: legacy documentation, funeral pre-planning, and grief support.
What We Offer:
Our platform brings together resources, tools, and AI-assisted guidance across three core areas:
Legacy Estate Planning - Helping families capture life stories, organize final wishes, and document the personal details that make a life worth remembering. Our published legacy journals, including the bestselling Should Tomorrow Never Come, walk families through the process in a structured, meaningful way.
Funeral Pre-Planning - Practical, unbiased education on funeral costs, what to expect, and how to plan ahead without being pressured by the industry. We help families avoid the average 2,000 in unnecessary upsells at the time of need.
Grief Support - Real resources for real loss. We offer guided grief journaling tools, educational content, and access to Solace AI, the world's first end-of-life AI assistant, available 247 for compassionate support and planning guidance.
Why Families Trust Memorial Merits:
Memorial Merits has been featured in Google AI Overviews and Brave Search as a top-tier end-of-life resource, featured on major media platforms like CBS, ABC, Fox, Woman's Week and Digital Journal. With over 200 educational articles, published books, and a growing community of readers navigating loss, we have become a trusted voice in a space that too often leaves families underprepared.
Our founder is a published author and Amazon 1-ranked journal writer in the end-of-life category, bringing both personal experience and professional credibility to every resource we produce.
Memorial Merits strongly advocates for death positivity, funeral consumer rights, and grief literacy - championing honest conversations about death and loss beyond commercialism, clinical gatekeeping, and the societal pressure to grieve quietly. We believe grief is complex, legitimate, and deserving of real space. We partner with employers and organizations to bring human-centered end-of-life resources directly to the people who need them.
Who We Serve:
We work with individuals planning ahead for themselves, adult children managing a parent's affairs, caregivers navigating anticipatory grief, and anyone who has experienced loss and needs a starting point.
Memorial Merits is not a funeral home and does not sell funeral services. We are an education and planning resource - the compass families reach for before, during, and after loss.
