Published on 2012-01-10 13:06:47
"All men are created equal, then a few become firemen." ~Author UnknownWe've all seen this image time and time again. As it brings back memories of over 10 years ago, we don't often reflect upon the people behind it. Today is the day we celebrate the unsung hero who bravely rushes into peril to save someone he doesn't even know. January 10th is Volunteer Firefighter's day. The first organized force of firefighters was the Corps of Vigiles in Roman times. Now there are volunteer Fire, EMS, and R [..] > read more
Are Death and Charity Always Connected?
Published on 2011-03-30 13:25:33
Death is a touchy subject, and people certainly have a lot of questions. Who wouldn't? Here at Remembered.com we know that people are stressed and emotional when they lose a loved one. We try to answer every email that we receive as best we can and be sensitive to the feelings of people during bereavement. But this week we received a surprising email from someone who asked about charity...Not really about charity, it was more subtle (NOT) - actually he asked if we are "simply making money off of [..] > read more

A Message for the Living...

Maybe you didn't know it, but March is National Kidney Month. In fact - March 10th is World Kidney Day. Certainly not the most glamorous day of the year is it? I'm sure it's not even on most people's calendars. The green ribbon is very fitting since March 10th is World Kidney Day. Cuz just a week later, most kidneys are getting a serious workout on St. Patricks Day.Lets face it. There probably won't be a lot of people wearing green ribbons next week like the more popular pink [..] > read more
We're standing here with a Heart On!
Published on 2011-01-27 12:59:18
Okay - I apologize. We've succumbed to the lure of the punny, racy headline. It's just a desperate bit for attention you see. Why are we looking for attention?It's because February is American Heart Month...Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, and in 1963 Congress proclaimed February to be American Heart Month. We're doing our part to raise awareness for people by offering free online memorials to anyone during the month of February. Here's some key things to know... [..] > read more
Super... Heroes...
Published on 2011-01-09 23:44:28
In New York City, the murder rate has been steadily dropping since around 1995 or so. Which in itself is a great thing. At the rate it's going down, the leading cause of death in NYC will soon be "acting in the new Spiderman musical". Okay, I'm kidding - you're much more likely to die waiting for the airports to open after a snowstorm. I can't leave for 4 more days? Really? Come on!So today's blog post is really about some real heroes. The ones you see every day and probably know a few. And sinc [..] > read more
We're now on Facebook! I said - WE ARE NOW ON FACEBOOK!
Published on 2010-12-23 11:36:00
Hello and Happy Holidays everyone!One of the long-time goals of Remembered.com was to get tightly integrated with Facebook. (If you call 18 months a long time, and in technology 18 months is a lifetime...) We designed the site specifically so it would fit into the 720px Facebook wrapper. Heck, Last week we even redesigned this BLOG so it would fit into the Facebook wrapper. We're simply gluttons for punishment, what can I say?Our goal was to create a hybrid website. Something that could work as [..] > read more

Hiya,I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving and there's a lot we all have to be thankful for. It's been awhile since we've last posted and there's been a lot of development here at Remembered.com in the last few weeks.
