Before the stories fade...

Every life holds
a story worth
preserving

Bequest is a gentle companion that helps capture your loved ones' memories through unhurried, heartfelt conversations — transforming fleeting moments into a lasting family treasure.

We always mean to ask...

About their childhood. How they met. What life was like before we came along. The stories behind the faded photographs in that old album.

But visits are busy. It feels strange to "interview" your own parent. There's always next time.

Until suddenly, there isn't.

Precious memories slip away every day — not because no one cares, but because no one quite knew how to ask.

Simple and unhurried

A glimpse inside

What it feels like

R

You mentioned your father was a carpenter. I'd love to hear more — what do you remember about his workshop?

Oh, it smelled of sawdust and linseed oil. He had this old wooden radio that only played one station — always crackling away. I'd sit on an upturned crate and watch him work for hours, completely mesmerised...

R

What a beautiful memory. The sawdust, the radio, watching him work — I can almost picture it. Did he ever teach you any of his craft?
