A little freaky to think about it but come on, but everyone dies sooner or later. And since we have obituaries in the papers, why not have one online. You get the share the life of a loved one, even if he/she is decreased. Sometimes it can be more inspiring than some hero which you read in the papers. Tributes offers online obituaries as well as information on famous decreased celebrity or someone famous or important. It also offers online community support to anyone who has recently lost a loved one. No matter what, I think that everyone has a story to tell, so why not? You can search through their online death notices and obituaries. I don't know why you would do it unless you have some hated enemy which you can't wait for him/her to die.
