An Israeli medical technology executive has found a way to use his mother's tombstone to keep her memory alive.

Instead of a pithy quote, Yoav Medan had a QR Code engraved onto his mother's headstone.

When the code is scanned with a mobile device, it takes the user to a website dedicated to his mother, which will have photos and stories about her.

The code is laser-engraved into the headstone, painted black and protected by a glass window.

"I was most concerned about 20 or 40 years from now, how will she be remembered," Medan told Mashable. "[I wanted to put] what's in our memory into a place that doesn't forget."
