Who We Are

The novelist and poet George Eliot wrote that, “Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them.”  With today’s digital media, cloud computing and mobile devices, there is no reason why a loved one should ever be forgotten.

Memorial Masters supports you in preserving your loved one’s life stories, end-of-life memorials and obituaries with skilled videographers, seasoned interviewers and writers, voice over talent and digital production.

Our interviewing team helps reticent story tellers bring forth their life stories through memory-eliciting questions in an atmosphere of comfort and care. Their video story becomes a part of your family legacy.

The videography team unobtrusively captures Celebration of Life memorials, eulogies and family memories, allowing you to be present for the service and your loved ones. The resulting video becomes a treasured artifact of that moment in time and the love shared.

Our digital production team skillfully transforms the life story interview, the military funeral or the Celebration of Life memorial into a cohesive and beautiful “film” you’ll be proud to share with family and friends.

“Looking back, I’m so glad we engaged Steve and his team to video the funeral. When I was ready to watch it, I realized all the moments I’d missed that day. I treasure this keepsake with the pastor, our family, the memories shared, the people’s smiles and tears and the love expressed for our loved one.” – Jack & Shirley Smith

What we have once enjoyed deeply we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

Helen Keller

When those you love die, the best you can do is honor their spirit for as long as you live.

Patrick Swayze

Our death is not an end if we can live on in our children and the younger generation. For they are us; our bodies are only wilted leaves on the tree of life.

Albert Einstein

Every man’s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.

Ernest Hemingway

To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.

Thomas Campbell

Neither fire nor wind, birth nor death can erase our good deeds.

Buddha

When it’s time to die, let us not discover that we have never lived.

Henry David Thoreau

It's better to burn out than to fade away.

Neil Young

I discovered to my joy, that it is life, not death, that has no limits.

Gabriel García Márquez

Death smiles at us all, all a man can do is smile back.

Our dead are never dead to us, until we have forgotten them.

George Eliot

How can the dead be truly dead when they still live in the souls of those who are left behind?

Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.

Mark Twain

They are not dead who live in the hearts they leave behind.

Tuscarora

It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.

George S. Patton

The people we most love do become a physical part of us, ingrained in our synapses, in the pathways where memories are created.

Meghan O’Rourke

Death never takes the wise man by surprise; he is always ready to go.

Jean de La Fontaine

Because life is fragile and death inevitable, we must make the most of each day.

Thomas S. Monson
