A Kentucky inventor has developed the first U.S. patented memorial device designed to preserve and play a loved one’s life story and eulogy for generations to come. The innovation, called FlashBack, allows family members, friends, and future generations to hear a recorded tribute with the simple touch of a button, creating a connection across time unlike anything previously available in the memorial industry.
How it Works
FlashBack begins at the funeral home, where it is displayed during visitation and funeral services on a custom-designed stand near the register book. As family and friends gather to pay their respects, they can hear the recorded life story and eulogy of the deceased, creating a more personal and meaningful experience during the service.
Following the funeral, FlashBack is presented to the family as a permanent keepsake and can be attached to a monument or memorial. Years and even decades later, visitors can return to the gravesite, touch the device, and hear the same life story that was shared during the funeral service.
Impact on the Community
Funeral homes across the country are already incorporating FlashBack into their visitation and funeral services. Funeral professionals have embraced the innovation as a meaningful enhancement to traditional funeral offerings, allowing families to preserve the most personal part of the service—the life story and eulogy—for generations to come.
