Margaret Ellsworth
1946 — 2024 · “Maggie”
Savannah, Georgia
A gardener, a fierce Scrabble opponent, and the kind of grandmother who kept butterscotch in every coat pocket. Margaret loved fiercely, laughed loudly, and never left a porch light off for anyone finding their way home…

Emma, my daughter
Her wedding day
My dearest Emma, if you're reading this, then today you're getting married — and I so wish I could be in that front row. Know that I am, in every way that matters…

An obituary written by the one who lived it
Most obituaries are written in a fog of grief, in a single afternoon, by someone trying their best. Obit Yourself flips that — guided prompts help you shape the narrative of your life while you're here to shape it, with warmth, detail, and honesty only you can bring.
- Guided prompts for milestones and quiet moments
- Elegant, timeless templates — no design skills needed
- Lifetime edits as your story keeps unfolding
One warm place for the whole of your remembrance
From your first written word to the final handover, every piece works together — private, encrypted, and entirely yours.
Personalized obituaries
Craft a living obituary with guided prompts and elegant templates — so the story that's told is the one you'd tell yourself, not a rushed draft written in grief.
Memorial video studio
Record and organize video messages directly in the browser. Add captions, chapters, and cover moments so your presence is felt, not just remembered.
Scheduled future messages
Write letters and record notes to be delivered on the dates that matter — graduations, weddings, quiet anniversaries — long after you're gone.
Encrypted Legacy Vault
Store documents, final wishes, and passwords in a private, bank-grade vault. Nominate trusted keepers who unlock it only when it's truly needed.
Trusted keepers
Invite family or an executor as keepers. Set release rules so the right person receives the right thing, verified and exactly on your terms.
Grief-eased handover
When the time comes, families receive a calm, organized handover instead of a scramble — every wish documented, every message ready to send.
Built for presence, not paperwork
Estate tools organize your documents. We help you stay present in the lives you love. Here's how we compare to the tools people know.

Peace of mind, in their own words
“I wrote my own obituary on a quiet Sunday and finally exhaled. My kids won't have to guess what I'd have wanted — it's all there, in my words.”
“The scheduled messages feature undid me in the best way. My daughter will hear from me on her wedding day. That's worth everything.”
“After losing my father with nothing organized, I set up my own vault the next week. It took an afternoon and lifted a weight I didn't know I carried.”
“We offer Obit Yourself as a white-labeled add-on at our funeral home. Families feel cared for beyond the service — it's become part of who we are.”

Everything you might be wondering
No. Obit Yourself is a one-time package purchase — Basic ($59), Premium ($149), or Family ($299). You own your legacy for life. Optional Legacy Vault renewals keep expanded storage active over the years, but they're never required to access what you've created.
Only you, until you decide otherwise. Everything lives in an encrypted Legacy Vault. You nominate trusted keepers and set precise release rules, so your obituary, videos, and messages are revealed only to the right people, at the right moment.
Your nominated keepers confirm the event through a verified handover. Only then are your scheduled messages, obituary, and final wishes released according to the rules you set — giving your family a calm, organized path instead of a stressful scramble.
Those tools focus on documents and checklists. Obit Yourself is built around your voice and presence — a living obituary, an in-browser video studio, and date-scheduled future messages, all in one encrypted vault. It's remembrance you shape yourself, not a form you fill out.
Always. Every plan includes lifetime edits. Rewrite your obituary, re-record a video, add a new message, or update your keepers whenever life changes. Your legacy grows with you.
Yes. Obit Yourself is available as a white-labeled add-on through partnering funeral homes and hospices, so families can extend care beyond the service itself. If you're a provider, reach out through the partners section below.
