Some comfort is offered by obituaries and genealogy websites,
but trying to sum up entire lives in one paragraph, or trying to
understand a personality by gathering stories from distant
relatives at funerals doesn't do them justice. Distant memories
are difficult to recall at the best of times, let alone when
grieving. Our loved ones are too often remembered as a
formulaic, one-paragraph summaries, instead of the meaningful
tributes they deserve.
We want to change the way
people deal with loss, help them through the duties that come
with bereavement, and promote the celebration of lives that have
run their course. That's why we created After.io, a
community social media platform that allows friends and families
to come together to commemorate a loved one's life, preserve
their legacy, and help each other heal.
