How do I create an online tribute for a lost loved one

The family of the late Ian, would like to convey their sincere thanks to all relatives friends and neighbours, for kind expressions of sympathy, cards of condolence and donations received for Andy's Man Club following their sad bereavement. We would like to thank the Dr's, nurses and staff at Huddersfield Royal Infirmary for all the care given to Ian and the love and care shown to us his family. We would also like to say a huge thank you to everyone who gathered at Golcar Village to show their respect's for Ian and support for his family as we took him on his final journey to the crematorium and then to arrive at the crematorium and see so many people gathered there too, was an absolute wonderful tribute to him, thank you. Finally special thanks to Bill Wilde for his kind words and comforting service and to Joanna of Golcar Funeral Directors for her professional and caring service.

After losing a loved one, you might feel distraught and disorientated – but you also need to tell others who were close to them too about their sad passing.

An online tribute can be an easy and comforting way to achieve this, and Co-op Funeralcare has teamed up with charity Muchloved.com – experts in creating virtual tributes – to support people through the process.

●Co-op Funeralcare offers clients the chance to set up a funeral notice, letting family and friends know someone has died. You have complete control over the content and it can be linked to an online tribute.

Touching recollections, anecdotes and stories about a special person who has passed away can be shared easily via an online tribute. This very personal tribute will develop over time into a beautiful lasting legacy to them.

An online tribute can be accessed easily and it is really simple to upload your comment. As it is also linked to the funeral notice, mourners can read important event information at the same time. Shared memories gathered together prior to the funeral ceremony can also be read out during it.
