DNA Memorial is excited to announce that Bailey’s Funeral Home of Yorkton Saskatchewan is a Licensed Provider of DNA Memorial services and products to the families they serve. DNA Memorial is a DNA services company which has developed a patent pending method of extracting DNA and binding it to a substrate.. The process allows the DNA to be stored at room temperature indefinitely at home in a drawer or safe place where any other family document would be stored. This breakthrough technology provides consumers the ability to “bank” their own (or deceased loved one’s) genetic record (DNA). This is a replacement to saving a person’s ashes as the end product looks like a fine white powder and is replacing urns and cremation jewelry.
Having genetic record of a family’s medical history is an important diagnostic tool for physicians and researchers. In addition families can now save their entire family history crating a modern day family tree. By saving the DNA of loved one it preserves everything about that person their entire blueprint that made them unique.
Most mementos lose their value to a family over time. An urn full of ashes may not have the same value to a great grandchild that never knew the deceased but with the DNA the farther away the relation the more relevant the preserved DNA becomes. Tracking mutations over generations can now predict diseases before they occur. As science continues to eveolve the possibilities will grow but if the sample is lost through cremation or internment then the information is gone forever
DNA Memorial has expanded from Canada to the US and now is being launched in the UK. This new process is revolutionizing the funeral business and will change the way we interact with our deceased.
