The family and friends of the deceased can collect all the electronic data they wish to keep in a memory chip in the shape of a tombstone.

The memories will be brought together in a memorial, and a quick computer search will also be available to find the location of the chip needed to bring it into a separate memorial room to look back on the good times and thus deal more positively with the loss and heal the hurt.
