Ft.Lauderdale, Florida October 22, 2003

LifeFiles, the leader in Internet based remembrance and memorialization programs for funeral firms, recently merged with FX-Directors' Solutions to form Aldor Solutions Corporation, which also recently acquired Davidson Software Systems. The group is now the largest provider of market driven technology solutions to funeral firms in North America. "We intend to continue to bring the best practices and leadership in helping funeral firms better develop and expand relationships with the families they serve, using the most widely accepted technologies. With our group's technologies in use at over 2400 funeral firm locations, we believe that no other firm can match our expertise in this important part of funeral service today and in the future", said Platner.

Aldor is the corporate realization of a partnership among Todd Abrams, Michael Platner and Rich Harper, who together have over 20 years experience providing technology solutions to the funeral service industry. Aldor has offices in Dallas, TX, Ft. Lauderdale, FL and Williamston, MI. Michael Platner is CEO, Todd Abrams is COO and Rich Harper is V.P., Customer Support.

Davidson Software was one of the first firms to provide arrangement software for funeral homes, beginning in the early 1980's. Its FDMS series of Windows applications are well known for reliability, ease of use and continual new features. In 2002, Davidson introduced a completely web enabled version of the software, WebFDMS, making it possible for multiple firms, arrangers, and counselors to access the software from any computer via the Internet. WebFDMS eliminates the need for loading any local software or managing time consuming data transfers and batching among locations. Even single location owners find the ease of access to their most important real time business data to be a distinct advantage over local network based software.

FX Directors' Solutions is a leading web solutions provider to industry vendors, associations, funeral homes and cemetery firms. FX-DS also provides funeral firms management tools such as human resource intranets, as well as consumer service enhancements such as online funeral broadcasts, online picture boards, "Timeless Reflections", a DVD photo memorial set to music, and the newly introduced FuneralEmployment.com
