Writing a Dying Letter

I read an article today about Elizabeth Edwards passing away. I was struck by a comment made by someone close to the family. They were talking about her preparing her family for her death by writing a "dying letter", a way to pass on her wisdom and stories.

This hit really close to home because I believe in the value of this act so much. I believe it will truly mean something to her family. My Digital Afterlife gives the ability to not only write a letter like Mrs. Edwards but also more- important information, videos, and pics.

When we began this mission it was with soldiers and single parents in mind but as time has gone on our vision and our hope is that anyone can be able to coordinate something such as this, that many will find comfort from it, and that we can continue to endeavor to do whatever it takes to facilitate something that is valuable to families and friends.

As always we wish only the best for her family and all families that endure the heartbreak of losing someone they love.
