No one wants to think about dying, but failure to do so can
leave loved ones in a bind. A unique Web site, PartingWishes.com, offers a
variety of services to help consumers deal with this difficult topic.
As a free service, PartingWishes.com members are able to
document their funeral wishes by answering a series
of questions related to the style, cost and format of their own funeral. These
wishes can then be printed for safekeeping or stored on the site's secure
server. The member designates specific friends and/or family members as
"Keyholders®" who are each assigned a unique password. Only after the member
passes away can the information be accessed.
In addition, a lawyer approved U.S. and Canadian Legal Will service is now available. Users of this
service are presented with a series of comprehensive questions, written in plain
language, the answers to which form the basis of their Will. Online help is
available throughout the process, so that consumers do not need to be legal
experts to create their own legal Will.
PartingWishes.com has also introduced a "Memorials"
service which allows members to create an online tribute to loved ones or
alternatively their own memorial to be published after
they are gone. These memorials can be set up to remain online for decades to be
enjoyed by future generations.
A "Messages" service is available
for those people who would like to ensure that some final messages or important
information is passed on to loved ones, but who don't want to rely on a sealed
envelope which may either be opened prematurely or never discovered. The
messages remain completely secure until they are eventually unlocked by a
designated Keyholder® after the member has passed away.
PartingWishes.com is a privately owned corporation established
in Ontario, Canada, providing online services which span the globe. (2-11-03)
