Our Premier Partner, Legacy Touch , has a new way to increase Keepsake orders as much as 2x while creating a better overall user experience – and it’s now available on all Tribute Websites and most Premier Partner Websites, such as CFS. So, what's the secret? It's as simple as integrating a Personal Identification Number (PIN) directly into obituaries. This empowers families to effortlessly purchase meaningful gifts to honor their loved ones. They can order Keepsakes now, or months or years from now, with just a few clicks.  And, as mentioned, this integration has been proven to double orders on average! The process is straightforward—funeral directors add the PIN in their admin panel, and it seamlessly appears on the obituary, ready to guide families through their tribute journey. This eliminates the need for families to remember to share the PIN with their loved ones. By prominently featuring the PIN within the obituary itself, we've simplified the ordering process, providing families with the ease and comfort they deserve during a difficult time. If you'd like more information or need assistance, check out this page with more details , email csm@legacytouch.com , or call (855) 802-6800 .

Families have spoken, and they love having the option to honor their loved ones in an environmentally friendly way. Their impact has planted more than 5.2 million trees, thanks to the partnership between A Tree to Remember ™ and the Arbor Day Foundation — millions of lives honored through millions of trees. These memorial trees are more than mere symbols; they are integral components of thriving forest ecosystems. Beyond their role in purifying the air we breathe, they provide crucial habitat for birds, shelter for insects, and sustenance for wildlife. Together, the organizations carefully selected locations where each tree could make a meaningful impact, enriching ecosystems and fostering a healthier planet for future generations. Over 1.3 million trees were planted in 2023 alone, each tree standing as a poignant reminder of a life cherished and a love that transcends time and space.

However, now that we’re many years into the social media game, “the likes” are less exciting. Even if you have a bunch of likes on a photo, it doesn’t mean you’re converting your friends or followers to act. To put it plainly, likes don’t always translate into loyalty.
