Chptr Launches Memorial Broadcast Pilot Across Foundation Partners Group’s Central Florida Funeral Homes
In Ocala, remembrance becomes public: a first-of-its-kind partnership airing tributes where stories can be seen and shared.
A first-of-its-kind program brings televised video tributes to Ocala area families — and signals a bold new future for memorialization
By bringing tributes to the local airwaves, Chptr and Foundation Partners are shaping what memorialization can mean — transforming it from a private moment into a shared celebration of life. It’s a bold reframing of how communities remember, and what families should expect from modern funeral care.
“This partnership isn’t just about technology,” said Rehan Choudhry, Founder & CEO of Chptr, “It’s about changing what’s possible. Every life deserves to be seen, heard, and shared — not just remembered, but honored in ways that move people. With this launch, we’re turning memorials into something truly public, beautiful, and lasting.”
The broadcast tributes are produced in partnership with local funeral directors and delivered directly to families, complete with personalized messaging and broadcast timing. Airing during high-visibility local programming, these videos reach viewers across Central Florida, creating a new kind of visibility for lives lived and lost.
“We’re excited to see how families respond to this innovative offering — not just in Ocala, but as a signal for how the next era of memorialization will look,” said Area Vice President Thomas Matthews. “Chptr’s program honors life stories in the way families now expect — visually, publicly, and meaningfully. It’s exactly the kind of innovation that the industry needs.”
Choudhry added, “This launch marks the beginning of a new era in memorialization — one that blends storytelling, technology, and public tribute to create something powerful, participatory and enduring.”
