Virtual Memorials: How to say goodbye online

By: Ben Anton

Love lives on without end and because of this we experience a period of grieving after the loss of a loved one. Without love, those who now walk on the other side would have been forgotten soon after they had to leave us to journey there. But we will never forget nor stop loving and missing the ones we hold so dear and close in your heart and mind.

Remembering and celebrating the life of a loved one who has passed away can be unique as they were. That unique forum for remembering and celebrating the life of a loved one can be an online memorial.

An online memorial allows families and friends to pay tribute to a loved one in a meaningful and lasting way. Through an online service a special memorial can be created to showcase the life and legacy of a loved one that truly represents how much they meant to others.

A special online memorial tribute in honor of one who has passed on can include photos, fond memories, life stories of special moments and impacts someone had on the world and other loving thoughts others may not have known. These virtual memorials allow you to share the celebration of your loved ones life with relatives and friends from near and far. An online memorial lets the world know how much you loved them and how much they meant to you in your life. Even those who never had the opportunity to meet your loved one will be able to learn about what a truly remarkable human being your loved one was, how dearly they are loved by family and friends, and the great legacy they have left behind as an example for others to learn and live by.

Virtual memorials can help express the love and loss felt in a way that pays tribute to the departed; sometimes it is difficult to articulate what we mean to say when we love someone so very much. Many offer a variety of services like memorial ideas, poems and advice from those who have experienced the same grief and loss.

Unlike a memorial service held at a funeral home, church, or place of internment, an online memorial tribute is not a scheduled final ceremonial tribute that concludes after words of love and hope have been spoken. An online memorial memorializes words of love, admiration, inspiration, hope, and respect for a loved one for as long as the family needs. They can also help maintain a connection to the lost and be a reminder of them when we need the encouragement.

As the world gets smaller, more and more people are finding that family and friends are living all over the world. Showing our condolences and love for someone who has passed away can be difficult for family who are not living in the state or country where services are held. Online tributes give friends from all over the world an opportunity to share in the grief and remembrance of a life.

Communities and forums are invaluable for healing our grief during a time of loss. Many online memorials web sites have forums that let you share with non-family or friends just what you are feeling or struggling with. The forum can also be a way to find encouragement when you need it and allow you to express thanks to those that have helped you.

Expressing our love in a unique way helps express the individuality of our lost family or friends. Using an online memorial service can help you show love and heal grief in difficult times.
