The Story Behind Memora
In 2016, founder Renee Moncada McElroy was grieving and planning at the same time designing obituary programs for her all while navigating loss.
“What should have been a meaningful tribute became a complicated process.”
She searched through emails, texts, and scanned prints. And even in the chaos, she chose to move with care asking elders for names and stories before they were forgotten.
This moment sparked Memora:
A platform built not only to ease planning, but to preserve legacy, togetherness, and the stories that make us whole.
