Frequently Asked Questions
What areas and cities in Pittsburgh do we serve?
We're based in Pittsburgh, PA and serve families throughout the Pittsburgh area. Our legacy planning, memory preservation, and life story recording services are available to residents seeking support with end-of-life planning and grief counseling near Pittsburgh.

Can we travel to your home for legacy planning and memory preservation services?
Yes. We come to you. Our team travels throughout the Pittsburgh area to conduct legacy planning and memory preservation sessions in your home, making it easier to document your life story and plan for the future without leaving your comfort zone.
What is included in a life story recording session?
We capture your personal history through guided conversation. Our life story recording sessions preserve your memories, values, and experiences in a format you can share with family. It's memory preservation that goes beyond photos - we're documenting who you are and what matters most to you.
How does End of Life Consultation work, and what should I expect?
End of Life Consultation means we sit down with you to explore your wishes, concerns, and preferences as you approach this life stage. We listen. We ask thoughtful questions. Our goal is helping you feel prepared and supported while clarifying what matters most for your family's peace of mind.
What is the difference between an End of Life Doula and other end-of-life services we offer?
We don't currently market an End of Life Doula service. Life Memories LLC offers End of Life Consultation for planning and decision-making, plus grief counseling and bereavement support to help families after a loss. Reach out to discuss which service fits your situation best.
Do you offer grief counseling for families who have recently lost a loved one?
We do. Grief counseling is part of what we offer in Pittsburgh to families navigating loss. Our team provides a compassionate space to process your grief, and we also offer bereavement support to walk alongside you through the mourning process.
What does bereavement support look like when working with your team?
Bereavement support isn't one-size-fits-all. We meet you where you are. Some families need consistent counseling, others prefer occasional check-ins. Our team in Pittsburgh works with you to create support that honors your grief and helps you move forward at your own pace.
How can a family legacy advisor help our family plan for the future?
We don't have a specific role called family legacy advisor on our team. What we do offer is legacy planning - a service that helps families document values, wishes, and stories for the next generation. Get in touch to learn how our legacy planning and memory preservation services fit your family's needs.
What days and times are we available to schedule appointments?
We're open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Our team in Pittsburgh is available during standard business hours for legacy planning, life story recording, End of Life Consultation, and grief counseling. Contact us to book your appointment.
Do we serve areas outside Pittsburgh, or are we limited to the Pittsburgh region?
We're based in Pittsburgh, PA and currently serve families in the Pittsburgh area. If you're unsure whether we reach your location, reach out and we'll let you know what's possible for memory preservation, legacy planning, or other services you need.
Can we schedule multiple services together, like memory preservation and End of Life Consultation?
Many families benefit from combining services. You might start with End of Life Consultation to clarify your wishes, then move into life story recording for memory preservation. We're flexible - get in touch to discuss how bundling makes sense for your situation.
