unforgotten

Kept in memory

Unforgotten describes something or someone that remains in memory, that has not been forgotten despite the passage of time.

It typically applies to people who have died, experiences that left a lasting impression, or lessons that continue to shape behavior.

The soldiers who fell remain unforgotten by their community.

Unlike memorable, which suggests worth remembering, unforgotten simply confirms that forgetting has not occurred.
