What this record means
The record shows that the application for “REMEMBRANCE MEMORIAL CARE” filed by ValMark Memorial Group, Inc., a Florida corporation, was abandoned on October 3 2011 after the applicant failed to respond to an Office action, so the mark is not live, registered, pending, or cancelled—it simply lapsed. Because the filing contains no listed classes or goods and services, the USPTO record does not reveal any specific commercial scope, meaning a similar name would only raise a concern if another filing later attached concrete goods or services that overlap with your own. The abandonment notice is the most recent meaningful event, and no further maintenance or renewal dates appear in the file. The prosecution history shows only the non‑final action and the subsequent abandonment, with no oppositions, cancellations, or court actions, so the supplied history shows no enforcement activity. I'd treat this as a modest red flag: the name has been used in a trademark filing, but without an active registration or defined goods, the risk of direct conflict is limited, though you should still watch for any future filings that might claim similar services.
