Death is a difficult topic to talk about. Most of us wouldn’t want to delve into this topic because it is a sensitive subject. However, death is inevitable and even our loved ones can be gone in an instant. Fortunately, there is a way to keep the deceased’s memories, alive— through online obituaries. In Singapore, this is often done in most funerals. Here’s why it is important:

  1. Reach Out to the Deceased’s Friends

You might not have all the contact details of the deceased’s old friends and relatives so it would be better to reach out to them through obituaries. This will help raise awareness about the death of a loved one.

  1. Clear Funeral Details

This is also used to inform the people who are important to the deceased. It will provide them with all the needed funeral details such as the location, attire, and the time for the funeral ceremonies to start.

  1. Share the Deceased’s Inspiring Story

Often, this is included in funeral packages in Singapore in which it can be used to share the life stories of the deceased to inspire other people. The deceased might have made a great impact on other people’s lives and this is worth sharing for.

  1. Shareable

Since it is in a digital format, it can be shared in various social networks. This is another method in informing the old friends of the deceased. Also, this will make it easier to know the number of people who are going to attend the funeral.

  1. Use Different Online Tools

Online obituaries that are sometimes included in Buddhist funeral services are better than those in newspapers because various multimedia tools can be used. Using them, the obituary looks more aesthetically-pleasing.

  1. Immortalise Memories

Aside from photos, these obituaries also serve as a loving memory of the deceased’s fruitful life on earth. Plus, it is posted online so it won’t get easily discarded, unlike in newspapers.

If ever you choose a funeral parlour in Singapore, then make sure to ask if they offer online obituary services. It’s worth availing it because it can help you connect with the people who are important to the deceased.
