Most Common Questions and Concerns:
Why Would a Family Choose Funeral Webcasting:
For a wide variety of reasons, family members and friends are often unable to travel or attend the actual funeral service of a loved one. However, given the seemingly endless capabilities of technology, the advent of Funeral Webcasting and video streaming services, families can now take advantage of new ways to fill that void.
How Does Someone Actually View the Memorial Service LIVE?
Using this innovative technology, families and loved ones can now view the actual LIVE Memorial Service from the comfort of their own home, or whatever location is most convenient. What makes this so user-friendly is the fact that the only requirement is having access to the Internet. Another significant benefit, and why many families are using funeral Webcasting, is because all Memorial Services are stored online for a period of up to 90 days. This becomes helpful should anyone be unable to view the actual LIVE Memorial Service.
How Can You Preserve Your Privacy and Security?
There are two excellent options for families:
1. Funeral Webcasting can be viewed on a private and secure website page by using password protection. This ensures that ONLY the people you wish to join in this Memorial Service can participate LIVE.

5 Ways Memorial Websites Benefit Families:
1. You Can Share this with Loved Ones Everywhere
Friends and family can often live in different parts of your local area, state, or even all over the world. When a loved one passes away it usually very unlikely that everyone close to that person can attend the funeral. A Memorial Website is a central location where friends and family can gather to cherish the great memories or grieve, regardless of their location.
2. They Can be Personalized
Memorial Websites can be personalized by the family. This means that they can control just about every part of this tribute by changing the website, uploading family photos, writing notes to share their thoughts, and even editing the story to include biographical information, dates, places, milestones, history and significant events in the person’s life.
3. There is No Limit to the Amount of Content
A Memorial Website can have unlimited amounts of content added at any time. This allows all visitors, not just the tribute creator or administrator, to upload their own photos and videos and add an unlimited number of guestbook messages, gifts, comments, and more.
4. An Everlasting Memory
Memorial Websites can be kept online yearly or for life. The lifetime option provides friends and family with an everlasting memorial of their loved one. This allows every family member, friend, or loved the ability to visit the website year after year, reading the guestbook messages, viewing precious photos, watching videos, and much more.
5. A Low Cost Gift That Lives Forever
Memorial Websites can be created for free (for up to 30 days) giving families the opportunity to experience the process and ensure they find it easy-to-use, enjoyed by all of their loved ones, and is a meaningful way to memorialize a loved one. This 30-day window can also be extended for $30 for a year, or $50 to create a Memorial Tribute for life.
More importantly, the family is not required for any additional costs to keep this tribute online. In fact, families usually do not pay at all since it can be sponsored by anyone visiting the website. By far, the most common way a family receives these Memorial Tributes is when they are gifted to the family as an expression of the love and sympathy, in addition to, or in lieu of, gifts such as flowers.
