In the weeks after a loss, gather everyone’s memories into a biography that lasts. Willow brings the contributions together, so you can hold the family instead of the logistics.
What it does
The people who knew them best are close to you, in a way they may not be again.
In the weeks after a loss, friends, former colleagues, and distant relatives are close at hand. Their memories are warm, their attention is here. Willow gives you a quiet way to gather what they remember, while there is still warmth in the room.
Why it matters
Their life had many chapters you never heard.
A biography built from one perspective is incomplete by definition. The colleague who saw how your loved one handled a difficult day at work. The friend who knew them before family life began. Willow brings all of those chapters into one place.
What you keep
A digital biography for now. A printed book for keeps.
The digital tribute is there immediately, somewhere to return to in the weeks after the funeral, somewhere to share across distances. The printed book is the lasting object.
What it costs
The stories you don’t gather now won’t be there later.
A one-time cost for something that only happens once. Pricing is on the pricing page; there are no surprises.

HOW IT WORKS
One link does the gathering.
Five minutes to set up, then Willow handles the rest.
Send the invitation
Send the invitation alongside, or instead of, the funeral notice itself. The same link that brings people to the service becomes the place they share their memories. Easy to send on WhatsApp, in Messenger, or by email.
Willow shapes the contributions
Willow’s gentle prompts turn what would have been “thinking of you” into a real story. The platform organises everything for you.
Hold the biography
A digital tribute is ready right away. The hardcover book is ready when you are.
Willow is offered through trusted funeral home partners across Austria and Germany. Ask your funeral director if Willow is available, or start on your own.
