Somebody in every grieving family gets handed the same quiet job: make the program. They usually have two days, a borrowed laptop, and no design experience — and what the internet offers them is mostly paywalled template files and design tools that want an account before they'll open.
This site is the version of that hour we wished existed: a builder that opens instantly, works on a phone, produces a genuinely print-ready bifold PDF, and is free. Everything happens in your browser — the photo and the words you bring never touch our servers. No account, no checkout screen guarding the download.
The free PDF carries one small credit line on the back panel, which is how the next family finds the tool; an optional Pro upgrade will remove it someday, and that will be the entire business model. No ads, no data selling, no countdown timers.
If you also need to write the obituary itself, our sister site, obituary-template.com, composes one from a few gentle questions — free, and built on the same principles.
If something is broken, confusing, or could be kinder, please tell us.
