The
Deceased Preference Service (DPS)
The Deceased Preference Service has been set up in response
to many requests from people who have been bereaved. The purpose
of the service is to help you stop unwelcome post addressed to your
deceased loved one, and to assist companies in combating criminal
fraud which may be committed in the name of the deceased.

Creating a Memorial Website as an alternative means of Commemoration
More and more people are now using the internet as a means of commemoration and a Memorial Website can help you to express, keep and display valuable personal memories and thoughts about your loved one.
On a Memorial Website you can express your feelings about your loved one not just in words but in pictures, music and even video. You can also use your site to enable family and friends, however far away they live, to send their thoughts and to contribute as well, maybe by adding a lovely picture you've never seen or a special story you've never heard.
A memorial website enables friends and family to come together, not only in sharing memories and thoughts, but in supporting each other during the long and painful grieving process. Some people will also use their site to pass on information to family & friends about the funeral and later on anniversaries and other important occasions. A growing number are even being used to try to help raise money for good causes in memory of their loved one.
In addition, memorial websites can be kept online indefinitely, meaning that you can create a lasting record and legacy to be kept in perpetuity for family and future generations to see.
