I want to say something on the behalf of Echovita. You guys are truly amazing and I want to thank you for the very nice and beautiful things you said about my Wife Heather Jane Short. By no means did they steal anything from an obituary. What they said was genuine and heartfelt. Thank you guys so very much. With solemn reverence, we commemorate Heather Jane Short of Three Rivers, Michigan, born in Sturgis, Michigan, whose life came to an end on January 8, 2025 at the age of 49, leaving behind cherished memories. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Heather Jane Short to show support.As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Heather Jane may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night. very beautiful 😭😭😭😭
Terrible company that takes official family obituaries and then creates their own unauthorized obituaries asking for donations. They created an unauthorized obituary with the incorrect address for the reception. I went to their website to have this unauthorized obit taken down. The website says it'll take up to 3 days to take it down which will be after the funeral. For a company to prey on grieving families is despicable.
0 stars. Taking advantage of people at their most vulnerable. You have no ethical right to re-write carefully written obituaries and create inauthentic & disrespectful fake ones, pulling & re-writing very personal info without permission. Families should not have to waste time requesting removal, you should not be mining people’s details for your own use in the first place. Absolutely disgusting company, pretending to provide a ‘service’ to the public. Re-writing the carefully written words of families without any consent is incredibly intrusive at a difficult time. The replies to the other reviews show a complete lack of self-awareness. You do not have consent to create these fake write-ups that can rank in Google even higher than what a family has written and appear real. “ The Funeral Service Association of Canada (FSAC) said it has concerns about the practice which it referred to as “obituary scraping or pirating.”“ The company names may be different, but it’s the same old game.The Bereavement Authority of Ontario (BAO) is alerting the public again about companies that are ‘pirating’ or copying obituaries to their websites…A company called Afterlife.co was doing this until 2019 when a federal court judge ordered it to pay $20 million as the result of a class action lawsuit. The company later ended its operations. In recent years, Echovita was formed by one of the directors of the Afterlife.co”
Failed to send flowers to a wake on Feb 11, 2025, then offered to send them after burial!! Charged my credit card 3 times, and credited my credit card 2 timesI still await my refundSnakes!Post Script: my credit card shows 3 charges and 2 credits! The statement does not lie!
I wouldn't even give them one star if offered the option! My dad died 5 days ago, & these vultures swooped in & totally butchered the obit, & excluded my husband, & all of my dad's grandchildren, among other things. The REAL obit was written by my mom, & is beautiful & really honors my dad's memory. I contacted Echovita to remove the obit (I admit I used some strong words--no bad words though--not my style), & we shall see where it goes from here. I literally felt sick to my stomach when I found my dad's inaccurate, unauthorized obit on there. If I have my way, they will not make ONE RED CENT off of my father's death. This should NOT be legal what they do. One day they will give an account before their Maker.
Long story short:For lack of a better word or phrase This website is a scam.Short story LONG:I'm not sure how I would even classify this website, What other possible reason would these people have to scour the internet looking for obituaries just to repost them on their own website WITH NO AUTHORIZATION?I found both my father in law and my wife on their website and I can say for a FACT they did NOT HAVE permission.what's more is we had already done an obituary both on the funeral home website and in the newspaper.I'm sure almost every funeral home offers this, but My father in law and my wife's obituary both had the option to" sign the book of condolences" And/or. " Light a candle"And if you go look at an obituary on echovita.com you will see they too give you a similar offer, they give you the option to " light a candle" or " plant a tree" but in their case they make you PAY FOR that. ONE positive thing to say about it though, Even though I don't know how or why they got the obituaries, when I contacted them and alsed them to cease and desist they did so IMMEDIATELY.
The Obituary you have done for a Matthew Zacamy needs to be taken down from the obituaries of Freeport page on Facebook. His family NEVER authorized it, nor what it said. They are currently trying to write up one that they want to share with other family and friends.
This company has yet stole another information and is attempting to sell "service" for loved one that has passed away. We did not even give permission or let Echovita post the orbits. She has passed away in 2020. Do not support or donate money to this company. One quick look with search engine shows that it's not the first time Echovita has done this.
