| '''Devin Dai,''' President of [[LovedForever:About|LovedForever.org.nz]] and Founder of [[Headstone Factory|Headstone Factory Limited]] | | '''Devin Dai,''' is not a stone mason |
|
| |
|
| == About ==
| |
| '''Devin Dai''' is a New Zealand-based entrepreneur and the founder of '''Headstone Factory Limited''' and '''LovedForever.org.nz'''.
| |
|
| |
| His work focuses on memorials, remembrance, family stories and the preservation of memories.
| |
|
| |
| == Headstone Factory Limited ==
| |
| '''[[Headstone Factory|Headstone Factory Limited]]''' provides memorial and monumental services, including headstones, memorial inscriptions, restoration and installation.
| |
|
| |
| Through his work in the memorial industry, Dai has worked closely with families who want to create meaningful and lasting memorials for their loved ones.
| |
|
| |
| This experience led to a broader idea: a person's memory should not be limited to a physical memorial alone.
| |
|
| |
| A headstone can preserve a name and important dates, but a person's life contains much more — stories, photographs, family history, memories and the experiences shared by the people who knew them.
| |
|
| |
| == LovedForever ==
| |
| '''LovedForever.org.nz''' is a digital memorial platform founded by Devin Dai.
| |
|
| |
| The platform was created to provide a place where families and communities can preserve and share the lives, stories, memories and family histories of people.
| |
|
| |
| LovedForever is built around a simple idea:<div style="text-align:center; font-size:28px; font-weight:bold; padding:25px;">
| |
| Every Life Deserves to Be Remembered.
| |
| </div>The platform combines the concept of a wiki with digital memorials, allowing families and communities to contribute to a person's story over time.
| |
|
| |
| Memorial pages can include:
| |
|
| |
| * Life stories
| |
| * Family trees
| |
| * Photographs
| |
| * Videos
| |
| * Memories
| |
| * Tributes
| |
| * Important life events
| |
| * Cemetery information
| |
| * Family history
| |
| * Stories from family and friends
| |
|
| |
| == From Physical Memorials to Digital Memories ==
| |
| The idea for LovedForever grew from Dai's experience in the memorial industry.
| |
|
| |
| Traditional memorials provide a permanent physical place of remembrance. LovedForever extends this idea into the digital world.
| |
|
| |
| The vision is to connect a physical memorial with a digital memorial through technologies such as QR codes.
| |
|
| |
| A person may visit a cemetery, scan a QR code on a memorial, and discover not only a name and dates, but also the person's life story, photographs, family history and memories.
| |
|
| |
| In this way, a memorial can become a gateway to a much larger story.
| |
|
| |
| == Vision ==
| |
| Dai's vision for LovedForever is expressed through the phrase:<div style="text-align:center; font-size:26px; font-weight:bold; padding:20px;">
| |
| A Wiki for Every Life.
| |
| </div>The purpose is not only to remember famous people.
| |
|
| |
| Every person has a story.
| |
|
| |
| Every family has memories.
| |
|
| |
| Every life can leave something meaningful for future generations.
| |
|
| |
| LovedForever aims to provide a long-term place where those stories can be preserved and shared.
