The Concept of a Keeper
A Keeper or Keeper Administrator is the user designated to manage an online memorial. They serve as the "Keeper" (i.e., Administrator) of the page, they are the one(s) responsible for keeping the decedent's memories alive.
Note: When an obituary is created through your obituary dashboard or through our integration settings in your Parting Pro dashboard, you automatically become the obituary Keeper. Therefore, you are the Keeper of all online obituaries your business creates.
