Everstory Partners serves over 65,000 families annually and in addition to its funeral home business, operates close to 400 cemeteries around the United States, including Puerto Rico.

Recently they authored this press release which lets us know that they have completed a process in which all cemeteries have been digitized.  Here’s what Everstory CEO Lilly Donohue said in the press release about the process,  “When I joined Everstory, our teams wrote paper contracts for in-ground burials and mausoleum interments based on paper maps that could be 50 or 100 years old. Our systems and processes had not evolved, and our families and employees deserve better than that. So, during 2024, we digitized services and contracts at all our cemetery locations. Now, every contract is digital and in most cases, accompanied by aerial drone mapping. This digitization will help protect families’ end-of-life choices for generations to come.”

To accomplish this task Everstory Partners teamed-up with Plotbox which is described in the press release as such, “. . . an international cloud-based deathcare management software and mapping company based in Northern Ireland, with a team in the United States.”

One advantage for Everstory in this digital mode is that they can use the technology interface to view inventory and write contracts from anywhere — including homes, funeral homes, retirement centers, and even hospitals.

And, according to CEO Donohue’s statement’s in the press release, Everstory Partners is not finished with their technology transformation.  Donohue states, “In 2025, we are bringing this same focus and attention to digitizing services at our nearly 100 funeral homes. And we will not stop there. We will continue pushing and advancing death care services to meet the changing needs of our families.”
