Death and Our Digital Legacy

When someone passes, social media's continue to surface their information and present it to you at the most random moment. I had one such case today on LinkedIn where a former colleague of mine from UCLA popped up on my Facebook page. Some people find comfort in setting up memorials. Others want letters preserved and sent to a museum. And for him, it's very important because he will not have children because he's one of the last ones in his family that his heritage is preserved.
