Protect Future Generations with "GeneLink"

As an optional service, we now offer GeneLink, which collects and store, for 25 years a DNA sample of the decendent. This records your family's genetic history in a way that could help family members better understand - and even prevent - illness in future generations.

Many individuals and their family members are predisposed to different diseases. This inherited predisposition is contained within DNA. DNA, the hereditary material of life, is contained in all the genes which make up who we are.

GeneLink has created a DNA Banking Service which stores DNA before or after an individual dies. This DNA can be used to establish whether or not the disease or disorder that caused death was genetic in origin. And as researchers continue to identify diseases linked to defective genes, living family members can use the stored DNA to discover if they are at risk for certain diseases such as cancer.

DNA banking shifts the emphasis from diagnosis and treatment to disease prediction and prevention. It allows future generations to access their family genetic history. Knowing your family's genetic history can help save your life or the life of someone you love.
