Built with Love for Grandma Glenda
The personal story behind Memorial QR and why we're passionate about preserving memories
The Reason I Started This
Hey, I'm Cole Collins.
I built Memorial Star QR for my grandma, Glenda Kelso.
"My grandma was the best storyteller I've ever known. It was her superpower."
My grandma was the best storyteller I've ever known. It was her superpower. She didn't just tell stories; she made you feel like you were right there with her. Whether she was making everyone laugh at a family dinner or offering a piece of gentle wisdom, she knew the perfect story for every moment. That's how she showed her love.
When she passed away, that's what I missed the most—the stories. The quiet was really hard. At her funeral, we all shared our favorite memories of her, and it was so comforting. But afterwards, I kept thinking, "What about next year? Or in ten years? What if someone wants to hear her story but doesn't know who to ask?"
I couldn't stand the idea of her stories fading away.
So, I decided to build her a permanent home online. A place that would always be there, day or night, for anyone who loved her. A place to hear her laugh, see her smile, and remember the incredible person she was.
You can see what I made for her here: Glenda's Memorial Page
We even put a QR code on her headstone. Now, when my family visits, we can scan it with our phones and immediately be surrounded by her memories. It's like she's right there with us, telling her stories all over again.
Creating this for her changed everything for me. It turned my grief into something meaningful. I realized that if this helped my family so much, it could help others, too.
That's the real heart behind this business.
It's not about the tech or the QR codes—it's about making sure the people we love are never forgotten. It's about honoring legacies, just like my grandma's.
I'm so proud to get to help other families keep their loved ones' stories alive.
Thanks for listening,
