How it works for families

One calm place to help, together.

Your funeral home can invite you to a private Legacy & Grace portal for sharing information, photos and memories, helping with the obituary, and reviewing arrangements from your phone.

The funeral home pays for Legacy & Grace. Invited family members are never charged.

Personal invitation

Your link is tied to the email address the funeral home invited.

No app or password

Request a one-time email link and open the portal in your browser.

Access chosen for you

Your role and section permissions determine what you can see or change.

What you can do

Share the work without losing the thread.

Contribute together

Authorized relatives can help with life-story details, decisions, responsibilities and requested information.

Shape the obituary

Add facts and comments, compare versions and approve the exact version you reviewed when you are a named approver.

Gather photos and memories

Build a private family album with captions, contributors, chapters and favorites.

Move at your own pace

See what is needed next, save selected work as you go, and return using another personal link.

Review final details

The primary contact can review a consolidated arrangement summary before finalization.

Share a memorial

After finalization, authorized people may publish a separate memorial and moderate its public guestbook.

From invitation to final review

  1. 01

    Receive an invitation

    Your funeral home invites a named email address.

  2. 02

    Open your link

    Request a one-time sign-in link whenever you need it.

  3. 03

    Help where invited

    Contribute in the sections your role allows.

  4. 04

    Review together

    Named approvers sign off on exact final versions.

Private planning stays private.

The portal is for invited relatives and funeral-home staff. A relative may be limited to particular sections. If a memorial is later published, it uses a separate public view with only approved obituary and service information, an approved portrait, selected links and approved guestbook messages.

Helpful when service is unreliable.

Selected writing and data changes can be held temporarily on the device and retried when a connection returns. Some writing areas also offer device-only draft recovery for up to 14 days. Legacy & Grace is not fully offline: uploads and some actions still require internet access, and clearing device storage can remove local work.

Family sign in

Return to your family portal.

Use the email address your funeral home invited. If you have not been invited, contact the funeral home helping your family.
