Livestreamed Funeral Services

As a courtesy to bereaved families during the Covid pandemic, when attendance at funerals can be affected, the Garden of Remembrance can provide live-streaming video of graveside services.

We use the StreamSpot platform to relieve the scheduling burden on families, to simplify the process, and to better secure against hacking and interruption. For families wishing to live-stream a burial service or unveiling, a link will be found on our website homepage (gardenofremembrance.org) and will allow up to 200 family members and friends to connect. StreamSpot is also available in our Memorial Chapel.

Through StreamSpot, services and unveilings will be live-streamed and archived in our Streamspot cloud. While StreamSpot does not provide two-way communications with online participants, families do not have to worry about distributing a Zoom link or password or request that participants mute their computers. A link to the recorded archive can be accessed by families.

Upon request, a member of our staff will provide this graveside broadcast, but please understand that we are not professional videographers and cannot control connection strength, recording technology, wind conditions, volume of speakers, or other factors that may affect the audio or visual quality of a live-streamed and recorded memorial service. If a live-stream or recording of high quality is important to you, many Funeral Homes offer professional audio-visual services to their families or can direct you to an independent professional.

We are pleased to offer this courtesy assistance at no charge to our bereaved families. For additional information, please call the Garden of Remembrance office at 301-428-3000.
