Since 1976, our Living Memorial® tree planning program has contributed to more than 13 million trees as a lasting memorial to loved ones.

• Included with the purchase of most Batesville products, we arrange for a tree seedling to be planted in selected woodlands throughout the world.
• We pay tribute to your loved one with a lasting memorial while helping the environment.
• This program provides trees that shelter our wildlife, reduce water and wind erosion and contribute to the purity of the air we breathe.

The Living Memorial Program helps ensure that future generations will know the beauty of a green planet — a lasting legacy to a life well lived. Talk to your local funeral home for more information about this program.

We are humbled by the overwhelming response to the Living Memorial Program. We receive thousands of letters like these every year. Click on any of the images below to read recent letters.

Our mission of helping families honor the lives of those they love^® lives throughout our organization.

Supporting Those in Need

Dealing with a loss is never easy. Whether it’s providing food and clothes to flood victims or caskets and urns to those impacted by a national tragedy, we do our part to help families during their time of need.

Remembering Our Own

The annual Remembrance Day honors our recently departed friends, family and colleagues. Associates who recently lost a close family member receive a keepsake to honor their loved one. It’s a fitting tribute to the work we do each and every day.

Honoring the Fallen

We gather with members of the local community for an annual Memorial Day flag raising ceremony. Flags representing each branch of the Armed Forces are raised in honor of those who have fallen while serving our country.
