QR Code Medallions Explained

When a loved one is gone, families often wish for a way for their story to live on. A memorial marker can tell you where someone rests, but a QR code medallion tells you who they were. Set into a grave marker, a glass-front niche, or a mausoleum front, this durable medallion can be scanned with a smartphone or tablet to open a personal online tribute. Family and friends can view photographs, read a life story, watch videos or revisit shared memories wherever they are. At Chapel of the Chimes Oakland, QR code memorial medallions can be simple and understated or personalized to reflect a loved one’s personality, interests, or legacy. They create a lasting connection between the place where someone is remembered and the stories that continue to matter long after the service ends. Whether you want a subtle addition to an existing memorial or a more customized tribute, we offer options to fit different memorial styles and family traditions. Below are the QR code memorial medallion choices available for Oakland and East Bay families.
