Living Memorial - Your own biography or business.

To some people the idea of a living obituary or living memorial may seem morbid or unusual. In today’s world people are taking responsibility for their own affairs in the event of their death. Newspapers and broadcasters have done this for years. They have always had pre-written obituaries for most famous people. Many of you will have seen the “premature” death notices for HRH the Queen mother and Bob Hope. Relatives Remembered offers a unique service, the only one in the world. You can create your own living obituary for all to see. Look upon it as the ordinary persons who’s who. You will be the pioneers of a process that will become “normal” in years to come. There may be a personal reason for you to want to create your own obituary, for example illness. This will help you gain comfort and satisfaction. You can help future generations understand their relatives and family history. Who was who? Who did what? What were they like?
We like to focus on the genealogical and ancestry values of creating a living obituary. Your life story is amazing. It is unique. You have an amazing story to tell.
