Is there Life after Death online?

Is there Life after Death online?

Is it possible to have life after death online? Yes there is as a strong future for this. It is already happening on Facebook on a regular basis. There have been new sites emerging in this genre. Memorials on line have been around for about 14 years. See (MyCemetery.com) It is only logical that the leap be made into the virtual cemetery.

Things are not quite there yet in terms of acceptance. Nonetheless it is getting coverage in the press. In a May 18 th article at CNN.COM

Snippet:

There are “more questions about what happens to our online lives after we log off for the final time.

The answer, until recently, was nothing.

But now, as online usage increases and social-media sites soar in popularity, more companies are popping up to try and fill that void created in your digital life after death.”

The article goes on to mention “Eternalspace” an online virtual cemetery available only through funeral homes. It also reports on Legacy Locker.

Snippet from CNN.COM:

“A Legacy Locker account costs $29.99 a year. Users can set up their accounts at www.legacylocker.com to specify who gets access to their posthumous online information, along with “legacy letters,” or messages, that can be sent to loved ones.”

Legacy locker is a great idea but a hacker could take a lot away from there.

All of the above will come to pass in the future, but for now some folks will only will take this only as a  cartoon in a cartoon graveyard...call me Al-apologies to Paul Simon and Chevy Chase.

Now you can view  funeral memorials and sign  the Jack Kemp’s Guestbook  on the internet.  Two Days after the memorial service in Washington DC’s National

The Jack Kemp Family provided family, friends, admirers a way to leave online memorials by having folks sign an online guestbook

Cathedral folks are still signing Jack Kemp’s on line guestbook leaving memorials.

Because Jack had millions of followers around the United States I  imagine that this will continue for several weeks and months. You can view  memorials here, sign and still send flowers.

Jack Kemp was a legendary football star and political leader. He worked hard for the civil rights, long before it was politically correct.

His economic policies and kindness in his political endeavors will make him a model for conservative and liberal camps for generations to come.

A great way to come in under the average cost of a funeral is to have folks sign an online guestbook and leave memories or memorials online.
